Where do you charge your Model Y to for daily use?
- Thread starter YNoVA
- Start date
Somewhere between 82.459765% and 88.123490% for regular use, but sometimes I set it to 72.676422934% if its going to sit for a few days..... unless its tuesday, then I set it to 74.6653842%
(no actually tesla does not recommend between 80% and 90% for daily use. They state to set it somewhere between the daily use sliders, which is 50% to 90%)

Home and 70% seems to be more than sufficient to get through a normal day. We drive an average of 60 miles a day, sometimes 100, and occasionally 160.

I run mine between 20% and 80%. They honestly don't much mind how you charge them - the 2170 packs are pretty robust compared to the expected lifetime of the car, an especially compared to how long most owners likely keep the car

I charge to somewhere between 80-85 depending on weather and temps. I use from 38-42 percent on my daily commute so I try to be in a position to turn right back around and head back to work without having to go to a supercharger.

After 26+ months of ownerahip of two Model Y’s I no longer give this much thought. I SET AND FORGET my slider at 90%. I also don’t plug-in everyday. I have gone several days between charges. The biggest exception is on HOT or COLD days. Uses shore power to take care of the battery and allows for pre-conditinning without using the battery. And about every 90 to 120 days I’ll run it down to 10% and charge it back up to 90% to help the BMS calibrate itself.
When I sold my 2020 LR AWD I calculate I lost about 7% range or battery capacity. When new the car displayed a MAX of 314 miles (rated 316) when I sold it it was down to 294. My new MYP displayed a MAX of 302 miles 100 and now 400 miles, according to the number displayed by the battery icon For what that’s worth.

I guess I should add that I do this for a couple of reasons. Mainly I hardly ever need more range than that unless I’m traveling. Second, I’m doing an experiment (granted not controlling for anything) to see how my range ends up after 5 years. At 55% my car usually only operates between 45-55% unless it’s a busy weekend or travel. But you do you! I’m just curious to see the long term effects and there’s little downside to me personally.
Curious though, is power reduced on the MYLR at lower states of charge?
Yes, when below 70% state of charge. Noticeable if you are comparing 0 to 60 MPH times but otherwise not.

I charge at home. I keep my 2022 Model Y Performance charged to around 50% mostly. I usually charge at 32 amps but if I am in hurry use 48amp I ignition just stick to 48.
