More apples to oranges testing:
"In short, this is the approximate number of miles that a vehicle can travel in combined city and highway driving (using a mix of 55% highway and 45% city driving) before needing to be recharged, according to the EPA's testing methodology."
"Edmunds begins with full battery charge and drives an electric vehicle on a mix of city and highway roads (approximately 60% city, 40% highway) until the battery is almost entirely empty. (We target 10 miles of remaining range for safety.) The miles traveled and the indicated remaining range are added together for the Edmunds total tested range figure. "
So they do more highway, stop with 10 miles listed left, and ignores the safety buffer (if any) that EPA uses.
This helps explain the discrepancy between lower than rated range and lower than rated Wh/mile.
Model, difference from EPA in miles, % range, % consumption
3 LR, -8, -2.3, -2.6
S Plaid, -3, -0.9, +2.7
S Perf, -8, -2.5, +6.3
Y LR, -9, -2.9, +3.0
3 Perf, -54, -17.4, -3.8
X LR, -34, -10.4, 0.0
3 SR+, -18, -7.2, +4.2
If Tesla has a 10 mile buffer after 0% SOC, the vehicles hit their range except for X long range, 3 P, and 3SR+.
The X data is really strange since it should have been able to go the full 328 miles using 94 kWh out of the 100kWh pack.
Similarly, the 3SR+ had better Wh/mile, but lower range. This could indicate a higher % buffer.
