Driving the car like I would my m5 (flooring it at every occasion) I get around 700 wh/mi you can see my average over 18 thousand miles driven while I had the car is an appalling 444 wh/mi
Here's some analytics, as you can see a model s performance dual motor gets an average of 450 throughout the speed range. It does drop to like 380 if you're cruising at 65 consistently. Btw summer tires were 21 in winters were 19, I did notice around a 5% increase in wh/mi between winter and summer tires in same temp.
Oh and that's my niagara trip, 7 drives aka charging stops (or is that 6?) Because you don't charge to 100% you stop and charge 30-40% every 80-100 miles. Heck some of these I stayed another 20 mins just to skip another charger because I was fed up with slowing down taking a 5 mile detour at 35 mph to go to a charger. Either way wasn't a fun trip. Had a 2018 p100d loaner, it averaged around the same. Took a plaid out over the weekend as a test drive, it did marginally better, but sustained 85 mph (max autopilot speed) still was around 430 and that was with 19s. Now a model 3 or y? For whatever reason those do around 350 at 85. Probably because the motors are less powerful using less [...]

There you go. Those theoretic ev fanboys trying to prove that it “can be done” or “is possible” or “with some planning “
are making me….😤WE ARE NOT THERE YET. Until next generation of batteries is widely available evs will not be alternative to ice cars.
