@@SunshineVocalsIm surprised SR LFP doesn’t have a smaller consumption, is a smaller battery and lighter vehicle. Shouldn’t that make it more efficient?
I think it was mostly due to drag and tuning for the awd models as it seems like the awd models where able to disconnect the front motor more often then the legecy ones which is why I think the range difference is on drag.
@@coolsquad7428 The front motor cannot be disconnected. It is just running without much resistance due to no permanent magnets. But as you can see in this test it does increase consumption due to its weight and also due to more moving parts.
Thanks! I really like that results up front and the way it was written on the screen helped with clarity(the car and diver labels were good too)! (Still watched the whole thing.) The difference between the 2 AWD cars was astonishing!
Love the video format! If I have time I watch the entire video but now, if not, I no longer completely skip watching since you tell me the range up front. Thank you!
Just got a LR RWD and the range has exceeded my expectations. I did a 185 mile commute, half of which was going 80-85 mph with thousands of feet of elevation change, and it only took 51% of my battery.
Absolutely enjoyed this GREAT video and the best of controlled testing you can do in a real life scenario, THANK YOU! I own the LR RWD, absolutely love it, my number’s are consistent with yours as well, it’s truly an AMAZING vehicle/BUY!!!👍✌️
Displaying the results on-screen is a great addition and allows for very easy comparison. Any chance of including m/kWh (to save my feeble brain) in future multi-vehicle range tests?
For the ones I cared about: 2024 Model 3 AWD 19" tires with LG battery: 4.15 miles/kWh 2024 Model 3 AWD 18" tires with Panasonic: 4.65 miles/kWh 2024 Model 3 RWD LR (base model now): 4.85 miles/kWh
Awesome vid! Please do more charging comparison testing with the model 3/Y, ideally include some older models too say 2019 onwards as the used market is getting very good and as you’ve proven charging speed on a road trip matters more than range
360+miles of real world range 0-60mph in 4.8s, it's cheaper than an ecoboost mustang after the tax credit and a referral code at 34k+tt&L. It's also the most American made ev sedan by parts count! Go tesla&team USA! 😎👍🏻
Great job team! The only thing that could be added would be comparison of what the BMS said the range would be at the end of the trip vs what it actually got, and how many miles at 70mph do you have after 0%. I would bet the LFP to have the least accurate reading.
I am very grateful you are doing all the range tests, for me it would be the most boring thing you can do with a car, except of waitig for a 100% Charge..
Loved seeing the M3 LR RWD vs Ioniq 6 range test. Loved this one as much or even more. Not at interstate speed on our hurricane Milton evacuation (rural roads and highways 99% of the time - max speed 65 mph and then city driving during our out of town stay) and we achieved 203 Wh/mile over 831 miles of driving my 2024 M3 LR RWD. Comfort and range were amazing, and Supercharging was convenient and painless. So glad I bought this car at the end of August. Now I'm looking forward to charging and 10% challenge test videos!
Great work! What a great comparison. All have plenty of range for long trips. The main advantage of the LR RWD is the price and the efficiency (which increases the more important factor which is charging speed).
My AWD came with Michelins, picked it up in July. I was worried that it would come with the Hankooks because I saw them on a car at the Tesla store in the spring. It seems like it's a crap shoot as to what they put on the car.
Aero, drivetrain config and tires are the main factors in efficiency. Aero should be the same except the performance has a spoiler. Testing stock tires is important since that's the most common overall car configuration, but I wonder how much is JUST from the drivetrain (single motor vs lr awd vs awd w/performance motor). Would be an interesting test to isolate the drivetrain variable by swapping all the cars with the same tire/wheel combos.
I live in Wyoming and drive a 2022 long range AWD....Most travelling is done on the interstate between 80 and 85 mph, and sometimes below 0 degrees F, and always windy. My cars lifetime average is 288 wh/mi. and is regularly 300 - 400 wh/mi. It would be nice to see some real world testing in similar situations. These slow 70 mph tests don't tell me much. Hopefully one day Tesla will make a car that I can drive over 250 miles in my state.
Many 1980's Japanese cars intentionally had "terrorist" gas gauges. When they said DEAD EMPTY and the FUEL NOW light came on, the car usually had 75-100 miles of range left. Apparently they felt that drivers couldn't handle the truth.
Great video! Having driven a lot back in Colorado and also here in lowland California, I would say that your wh/mi figures are going to be somewhat lower at 5000-6000’ than at sea-level, because of the thinner air. I don’t know what the percentage diff would be (one could prob theoretically calculate it), but the vehicle I have more extensive experience with at both altitudes is my ‘86 4Runner, seeing maybe about 25-28mpg at higher altitudes, and closer to ~22mpg near sea level. The diff might be 10-20%. An ICE also has more pumping loss at lower altitude.
I recently posted this on top of this page before I noticed your post here : "Am I correct in assuming this test was done in Colorado ? If so , you have to take the reduction in air density due to the elevation above sea level into account . In Denver at more than 5000 ft above sea level , air density will be only 85% of that at sea level . Air drag , the biggest drag component at 70 mph , will be 15% lower . I am guessing that this will approximately result in 10% more range than if you had done the test in Florida ."
altough theres almost nothing to see there.. i still love the wide landscape 😅 looks all like a huge desert ^^ i even googlemapped where they drive on my phone while watching 🤣
I would like to see a range test with a full load of cargo. Like simulating a road trip with a family. I think all that would be necessary is pick one car, see the losses and extrapolate that out to other models. My wife takes our RWD LFP (272 mi) with 3 kids all the time. We're averaging 253 whr/mile after 19k miles, which brings the car (if you calculate a 57kwhr battery - excluding the buffer) - to roughly 225 miles. This is pretty much what we get. I always say, it's basically a 200 to 220 mile car.
Excellent test! Tesla is hiring LFP manufacturing positions. LFP is definitely making a comeback because they test it on Model 3 and Y before putting it in the CyberCab.
With how efficient the long Long range rear-wheel drive is and with the discontinuation of the lfp pack, maybe they can reintroduce the standard range panasonic pack like they had in 2019. With the efficiency of the new model 3, coupled with a 60kwh panasonic NMC, it could get range comparative to LFP and qualify for the tax credit. That is assuming they can't manufacture the lfp pack in the US price competitively.
I'd love to see this exact same tes repeated with all the acceleration modes set to standard! Great to see that if you baby a tesla in chill mode you can exceed range, but I'd like to see a real world range test with additional efficiency lowering factors in play
I didn't realize the buffer that showed on Scan My Tesla was usable. I thought it was a protective buffer that was used by Tesla's system/BMS to protect the battery or something.
I've owned both the 2019 M3P and now the 2024 M3P, the range difference between the old and new cars is significant, but what's hurting the range on the 2024 is the Pirelli PZero tires. They are noisy, rough riding and not as efficient as Michelin PS4S that Tesla was using on the previous generation Performance model. I'd bet just changing the tires would get another 15 miles of range on a full charge, which would then meet the EPA range.
A shame they got rid of the small battery rwd, but understandable considering the tax credit situation making the big battery version actually cheaper. They should bring it back, but with cloth seats (like the ones they're doing in Mexico), no rear screen, and whatever battery chemistry would qualify for tax credit. Maybe even give it a solid roof like the original plan was. Then price it at like 30k. And do the same treatment for model y and price it at 33k.
It's all the tires! Tires eat your range, even the perf if you COULD put those aeros wouldn't be far off the other aero numbers. So it just comes down to, do you want sticky tires or not. In the perf trim, probably sticky imo....
I appreicate that you give the results at the start. But can you do a typical "If you don't want to know the results, 'look away now'." Or just a skip to timestamp.

Thanks for the Video. You confirm my choice to upgrade for a RWD long range Tesla model 3. I loved my 2021 SR+ but this new car will be a blast.
watched the entire video but appreciate the numbers in the beginning.
My RWD Long Range came with Hankook Ventus standard. Took delivery 2 weeks ago.
Mine came with Michelin and just picked up a few days ago in Minnesota.

Excellent test! Tesla is hiring LFP manufacturing positions. LFP is definitely making a comeback because they test it on Model 3 and Y before putting it in the CyberCab.

Great one !!
With how efficient the long Long range rear-wheel drive is and with the discontinuation of the lfp pack, maybe they can reintroduce the standard range panasonic pack like they had in 2019. With the efficiency of the new model 3, coupled with a 60kwh panasonic NMC, it could get range comparative to LFP and qualify for the tax credit. That is assuming they can't manufacture the lfp pack in the US price competitively.
It would drop about 200# as well as the 55kwh pana m3s we're as low as 3,540# vs the lfp are about 3,820# 🤔👍🏻
