Just did a 600 mile trip in LR MY.
Trip computer states the following:
603 miles | 183 kWh | 302 Wh/mi
I left the trip at 100% charge (74Kw in the pack). I supercharged during the trip for total of 125Kw. I arrived back with 7% battery. This means that I have put in total of 199Kw. Taking out 7% I had left (5Kw) it means I used up 194Kw for the trip, while the trip computer states I used 183Kw. That is a discrepancy of about 6% (or at 302Wh/mi 36.42 miles of range).
The trip was done in one shot, so the car didnt have time to sit and have vampire drain.
Why such a discrepancy? Are things like A/C, music, phone charging, battery cooling not counted as part of trip power usage?
Someone may mention BMS calibration. I supercharge only on big trips couple times a year. This car has seen less than 10 superchargers total, I keep battery charged at home between 50% and 70% always.
I also noticed on this trip that when I pulled in to the first supercharger I went from 100% down to 6%, but only pulled 64Kw by that point. With 74Kw pack I should have pulled around 70kw by that point.
Tesla advertises 326mile range, based on this trip (assuming 74Kw battery) I got 245mile range (so 75% of advertised range). I know that they advertise based on perfect conditions and going 55Mph, still fun facts are fun
I am more concerned with the discrepancy between what I put into the car and what the car says I put in/used.
