THANKS NICK, Don't mind the haters, they're still using candles to find their land lines, and they have limited internet experience because the library isn't always open for them to go online and get real information! Our Model Y only has 2336 miles on it, total lifetime usage is 568 kWhs (which includes the initial factory Supercharge), at 11 cents per kWh (I rounded up) that's $62.48 or an average of 117MPG equivalent. We've had this car a little over a month, but it replaced an EV we had for 4-1/2 years with similar MPGe numbers at just under 100k miles. The replaced car was T-boned by a teenager without a driver license that was driving his mom's car, and we walked away without a scratch. $62.48 buys about 17 gallons of Diesel at the best GasBuddy results around here, add the cost of DEF needed in your modern Diesel (but I'm going to set that aside for simple math purposes). 2336 divided by 17 gallons would mean that Diesel vehicle needs to get 137MPG to match our Model Y's cost of fuel. Good luck finding that vehicle for sale. Recent example from NE Tennessee to Fletcher NC over the Blue Ridge mountains and back, about 150-miles round trip resulted in a 134MPGe after charging back what we used.

Don't recommend going below 10% for long battery life for charging . And at 0 mile range you can get reserve capacity of around 15-20 miles in Emergencies . Because usable kwh is 76.5 and Total battery capacity is 82.5 for Model Y LR.

Nick, while on a trip, what have you found to be the most useful way to track the remaining miles left in the battery? Excellent information on your channel!
@Adventures_with_nick
Жыл бұрын
Thanks John! The most useful way is definitely the trip planner, but also comparing it with the theoretical range. I compare the theoretical miles of the battery with the total distance in miles for the trip. I generally assume 75-80% efficiency for highway driving

@@shdmd2118 using climate control unplugged will not make a difference to your battery health, it’s going to draw that regardless. The only thing you can do is set gradual temperatures because I’ve noticed if you set a very high temperature it runs the heat pump intensely but if you set gradual temperatures it will draw heat from other parts of the car or at least put less intensity on the heat pump and battery

Yeah have fun with that diesel. I spend about $45 a month on energy, where I know just filling up a diesel tank one time will be over $60.

@@Theboardsurfer Just switching to an EV tariff costs $45 a month in extra day time electricity charges in the UK, might be different from where you are. It's much cheaper to run a diesel, around 11-15p per mile depending on traffic, it's negligible, your EV depreciates more in a week than it costs to run a diesel for a month. I mean hell, considering the lifespan of a battery is around 8 years, it average 15p per mile in battery replacement costs alone, even if your energy was completely free.

@@DigiDriftZone Yes it’s different here in the States, that might make sense for you over there with the tariff. My Tesla depreciates more in a week then yours costs in a month to fuel? Where are you driving to, your neighbors house? I have the new LFP lithium iron phosphate battery. I should be able to get 500,000 miles and more out of it before replacement. Eight years? Nonsense. Maybe for the first models of Tesla. Now if I was hauling equipment or driving a diesel pusher, absolutely I would use a diesel over electric any day of the week. But if I’m driving all around town here in the states, it makes sense for me to use electricity. I can’t beat $45 a month in any other vehicle. And I’m a realtor, I drive all day, every day.

@@Theboardsurfer Average mileage for a car here in general is 7k per year or around £800 in diesel. Check how much your car depreciated in the past year, you'll be surprised. LFP is already proving less reliable in surveys than NMC. We've only had LFP since 2019 and there is something catastrophic like 7.4% of the batteries dying in under 80k miles, the failure rates on them are much higher than before. You are living in a fantasy world if you think it will last far beyond 8 years. Look at the prices of Model 3 that are just 5 years old, they are a paperweight at 8 years, impossible to sell, uneconomical to repair.
