  • Kyle is in Colorado with the 2022 Tesla Model X which is the long range, all-wheel drive variant. This vehicle is equipped with the standard 20" wheel and tire package and has less than 10,000 miles on the odometer to keep it a pretty fresh car!

    Kyle, do you have a spreadsheet or a post that lists out all of your tests? I just would like to see what capacities you (and crew) have run the vehicles through. I have a 2020 MS performance, and 324 at 100% (estimated) and am curious if I could achieve the 330+ miles as I can easily achieve less than 280 watts/mile on highway runs. Also looking at bolts and and E-trons as well. Thanks in advance, just a nerd wanting to see numbers. PS hope the Plaid is on the road sooner than later!!

    Kyle - what software version was the car on? Apparently the last two versions - staring with .6 - have caused an issue on all refresh s and x vehicles that results in a harmonic hum that is audible but not that loud (you may not have noticed it outside as opposed to in a garage), something to do with frequency setting when the connectors are closed. I have no idea what that actually means, but it is said to affect range a bit. So it’s worth understand if this may have been a factor for your test.

    • @Tonar18
      @Tonar18 5 месяцев назад

      Lots to like about EV9 but several deal killers. 1. It should be way cheaper, but dealers are asking $20k plus markup. So until that stops, off the list. 2. Still uses CCS plug, did that already…. no thanks. 3. Range isn’t great for a family hauler. 4. No tax credit offered. I’d look at this in a couple years when all those issues will be addressed, just not today. But I could say that about every EV being offered today. 2025-2026 will be transformative for auto industry IMO

    Very interesting results. So the iX 50 would go even further than the m60 meaning it could beat the model x by as much as 20-30 miles in range with similar performance numbers. Fully loaded they're also similarly priced. So if you don't want the insane Plaid, which would destroy the M60 in performance, I guess the iX 50 would be the clear choice over the normal Model X then.

    • @AleksanderHoff
      @AleksanderHoff Год назад +3

      It makes sense - the iX50 has a range estimate of 630km (wltp), and the new X is at 580km (wltp). The iX does not have that much space though, looks like a boat with beaver teeth, currently lacks the charging network that Tesla has (even though it can use the Tesla network in a few countries such as Norway.. blocking chargers for others due to location of charge port), and the software is not even close. New BMW seats are not as good either… imo, but that is subjective, but the iX seats are just way too flat for me.
      I am curious… just as with dirt and grime, will a matte folio affect the range due to more wind resistance?

    No big surprise that there's a hidden buffer on the "fuel". My friend's 85 Accord routinely ran 20+ minutes after the fuel light went on. My own car had a 13+ gallon tank, but even when the gauge said "dead empty!" the most that could be stuffed in the tank was 10 gallons, indicating a 75 mile reserve.
    And then there were older Jaguars, with two separate tanks, like aircraft, so if you picked up bad gas you could simply switch over to the other tank.
    Personally, I'd rather just have accurate fuel/range gauges.

      Shouldn’t have any vibrations. Picked up a new X Plaid and noticed a little vibration at 75mph on the drive home. Took it in and they ended up having to replace 3 of the tires - these were brand new and only had less than 200 miles on them from the drive home. They chalked it up to defective tires.

      Try to keep it cooler when possible, like not parking in direct sun or in hot garages. Not running sentry mode and reduce heater usage also help save some unnecessary cycles on your battery. Some people might even go to the extreme of not navigating to supercharger to help keep the battery cooler for longer

    Sorry but it doesn’t sum up. It still looks like Tesla is only showing the energy going to the motors, otherwise the degradation after only 10.000 miles would be too much.
    Either that or Elon is not being quite honest about battery size. You know, he managed to go 100kWh, why should the new model X now have to have a 95kWh?
    A last question, are you really sure about the rear motor being a PM one. The pre-plaid S had the Midel3 rear motor (PM) on the front and a induction motor in the back to get that much power into the available space, that’s why that model S was a FWD on the highway( ECO mode anyone). So it makes me doubt that the’ end changed that rear motor to a new PM one, losing some efficiency.
