I know. What I'm pointing out is that this value, "245" has been in ALL certifications documents from the SAE since 2012. In all model years.. even 2017 when the 85kWh pack isn't available anymore.
It also looks weird. "245". not "244.12" or "245.79".... just 245.
Let's take the data
you posted for the
model 3 :
230. OK, let's say this is 230Ah.
This is also from Model 3 :
Integrated Amp-Hours : 222.81.
230 vs 222.81.
Where is that 230 coming from? (and I don't mean it's coming from the document).. what I mean is that there is no explanation of what that means. Manufacturer provided number perhaps? IDK... but even if the EPA installs a shunt to measure the storage capacity of the battery.. they can only measure the usable part.. the the whole thing.
==>Can we agree on one thing for model 3 ? : The testing facility that did the measurements on the UDDS test measured 222.81Ah by integrating the area under the curve. That's the USABLE part of the battery. That's an undeniable, measurable value. 222.81Ah
Ok, back to model S now.
We have the first value, 245 (which, weirdly is the same for all MY). Ok, for the sake of the argument, let's assume that it's for the 85kWh model. Where is that second value, the integrated amp-hours value for the Model S.
I've yet to see a document which has the integrated amp-hours value of a 85kWh model S or X.
