Tesla Model 3 - V3.0

You should post your findings over here and ask for others to verify as there would be a good few more people over there to do the test you are looking for: https://teslamotorsclub.com/tmc/threads/model-3-sr-lfp-battery-range-degradation-etc-discussion.244385/page-40

Looks great would you mind pm me the price please, looking to getting it done on my model 3 soon

@mc2022B2TF Here are a few pics from a 200km journey taken today. RWD Model 3 picked up earlier this month.

It's still hard to tell... while at 50%, it changed from 26kwh to 27kwh, which is why I added both pics at 50%. I was not using lights or A/C. I was listening to Spotify and had the driver's heated seat on.

Could the new processor in the infotainment system be running 1-2kwh then for that journey?

Tesla did say that this new chip would use additional energy so maybe this is what we are seeing…

@Eireann81

Astonishing pics. I've never ever at any stage been able to extrapolate past 52kWh

Yet you are showing at your 75% a minimum of 56kWh

The plot thickens as the multiple pics you have shown clearly indicate a usable battery of at least 56kwh but more than likely of 57+

Thank you so much for posting these. I'll be opening another query with tesla and demanding some proper answers on this.

I will keep you all updated for those interested!

OK, attached is where I am at after 181kms. I will do the final one this evening when I get home - I should have ~250kms up by then and I estimate a level of battery at ~33%.

My lights would have been on for the 2 morning trips, heated seat and steering wheel for a part of the morning trip. A/C off but fan on speed 3. Also, when I got into the car this morning it was not cold so I suspect that the heating came on this morning even though I did not have a departure set on the Tesla App?? Car dropped between 1% overnight.

That's why you need to have a continuous drive when taking the measurement. That 1% which can be anything from .5%- 1.4% it is going to screw your results as it is not accounted on the display.

Somewhere on this thread I posted a screenshot of scan my Tesla app Totals. I'll try to find it. There are 2 figures which are not accounted on the trip meters. Recuperated energy which for me stands at around 32% of the total and stationary energy which is used while of course not moving. One can say that recoup is there because of the average consumption but it would be nice to see it separately nevertheless. The energy use while parked is substantial for me as I use sentry most of the time, I wait for the kids which don't know what punctuality is or I prefer to stay in the car instead of crowd the likes of Kildare village, I make hours long zoom calls from the car with AC blasting. Even after you park the car, the car itself will keep running some components to cool down the battery in a controlled manner. All these are not on the display as they are not part of the trip.

High 63c/kWh

2 days ago at Sandyford. Started with 235kW and left when dropped below 140kW. Left after 7 minutes, average charging power 163kW

I still couldnt justify the outlay. A quality respray of the front bumper can be had for €400-450 and the bonnet is fine apart from a couple of rock hits.

I appreciate paint protection systems can be useful for those who maintain their cars to a high standard with low miles, but as a daily driver with reasonably high mileage the ridiculous cost far outweighs any benefit. I use Klasse, which as an acrylic sealant does me fine for 12 months.

The bottom side rails of my car have taken a complete hammering which again no paint protection treatment would help. I also have the mudguard extensions on the from wheel, which has stopped the front beening worse than what it is.

Just click on a supercharger on the car map and it shows the price

I'd say no, maybe in summer if you drive at 100 but not in winter. Presume it's a roundtrip as not too many 400km motorways in Ireland 😁

1 quick toilet/coffee break would do unless you have destination charging.

If there's a supercharger on the route means chances of having to queue are very low
