We've owned Teslas for over 7 years, we've had the website about 6, and now we have vide content.
Hope someone can help me. Where are all of these SC codes stored? In the car? In the MCU? Or is ist to the vin number so it is downloded from a Tesla server via the connectivity? Many thanks
@@Tesla-Info ok. So you can not see it anymore. What i am afraid of switching out the MCU or some other components the free Supercharger will be gone. So where is it stored that this Model S have free Supercharger.
@@magnussvensson5304 no need to worry about that. Changing the MCU won’t lose free supercharging, the only way it will be removed if Tesla own the car, if Tesla offer the option to transfer it to another car like they sometimes do with FSD, and possibly if the car is written off and then put back on the road.
@@SebastianPociask yes, assuming you have access to both accounts. I’ve done it to buy the acceleration boost using referral points last year, transferred car, boosted it, transferred it back, all within a couple of hours.
When you format the USB in the car it makes its own Tesla folder, then just partition say 1GB for a lightshow folder on laptop or PC which is more than enough. why partition and make your own folders for Tesla cam and sentry mode? or am i missing something relative here. other issue here is if i put the usb back in the car when doing all of this i cant then format it otherwise i wipe everything!
Lfp batteries have lower peak charge and discharge demands. Plaid cars have a massive peak charge and discharge demands.. Drive normal and no sprints, longer battery life.
Is this still working for end points? I was able to use this to get a token/refresh but some of the old shortcuts i had setup on iOS don't seem to want to work anymore.
@@reidoo it should work for data query but you can’t send commands such as unlock charge port anymore due to the changes Tesla have made. If you want to do that then you can create something like iOS using requested exposed by the Tesla app. I
This was really detailed way more than any other video. Is there a public record of the last vin produced for a model so you can check when the vin officially switches to a new year from the manufacture?
We already produce this plot which can roughly work out when a car was built from the VIN, but I think to answer your question we’d need to somehow show the Year digit from the VIN alongside the build date. We’ll see what we can do, we have the data tesla-info.com/tesla-production/M3
my 13 year old chevy volt has gained 31% more range compared to the brand new epa range when new lol. a well built thermal management system, underspeced motors, and no dc fast charging means your battery will literally last longer than everything else on the car.
There are at least three variables which you're not mentioning: 1) What average temperatures are the different batteries being used in? Climate may be making a big difference, long-term. 2) What speeds are the cars being recharged at? Later models will be recharged on faster Superchargers, and this will affect battery longevity. 3) How is each car being driven? Terrain, average journey lengths and applicable speed limits will combine to affect battery durability. You might think of more variables to add to these.
I miss aging degradation analysis added to the figures . Not the same degradation 50k miles and 1 year old car than 50k miles 3 years old. The first will show much lower degradation than the second
is the F after your pink floyd albums mean folder? I would love to have play lists but if thats not possible can you separate music via directories? Thus creating your own playlist by just playing music within that directory?
We use a folder for each artist and/or album as it’s just helps to organise your music. If there’s good meta tagging on your music files then you don’t strictly need to. Tesla will read all the subfolders automatically although if you have a lot of music files then it can take a few minutes
My tesla model 3 performance is now at 17.5% degradation after 4 years and 7 months do i need to be concerned? looks like im up for a new battery or am i wrong?
would the 2022 SR cars showing LR capacity be early registered 2023 LR RWD models that technically came out in 2023? and the API is just reporting as SR.
I have one of the original Tesla Model S....VIN is in the early 2000's. I started out at 265 miles and then, unbeknownst to me, there was a settlement because of the battery. I received $4500 I want to say. Could be wrong. Now I am sitting at around 200 miles ideal range. Haven't fully charged in a while so hard to say. I have 214k miles on my car.
Has anyone tried to estimate the time degradation separately from charging cycles? Say, somone buys a new tesla and just puts in storage for 15 years, rarely driving it. How would the battery perform at that point?
Thanks a lot. I was torn between a used model 3 long range and performance, given that the performance is mostly a bit cheaper and faster for only little range you gotta trade in. Now I know to be extra carefull with the performance
Generally, yes if it was paid for on the car and is not being transferred to a new car by the seller of the car. Tesla sometimes run promotions where owners can transfer it to a new purchase. If you’re buying, it’s always worth getting the seller to confirm as part of the order that it’s included
I wished i would've known about Plaid battery degradation before i bought a used Plaid with 41K miles on it. Instead of running 9.2-9.3 at 150-151 mph best i can do is 9.4 at 146. I went to a dragstrip and trapped 148 twice but i think strip timing was off. Could be wrong. I haven't been able to trap over 146 on the dragy. Knowing what i know now especially with how much Plaid is depreciating i would've got one with under 20K miles. I bought mine for 68K a few months ago. Still a great car
You can’t set a start and stop time in the car or app, only one or the other. You can set a charging window on the charger or make custom shortcuts and schedule those in iOS
Does anyone know if the car has SC05 and I change the account email and name for the new buyer rather than the "Transfer" will this work? i am concerned about changes in registration... anyone have experience with this ?
Typically you're not just changing the account name and email address, you're also changing where it's parked every night etc. Tesla say only the current owner (with SC05) is entitled to free supercharging, it's therefore theft if you try to get round that and use the superchargers for free. Is it possible? Probably for a while, maybe some time. When they find out, will they come after you? Maybe, maybe not.. but you know its wrong.
Can you find data on ICE car depreciation rates to a similar resolution and segment? I think 15% over 3 years is massively underestimating. UK market prices in 50% after 3 years and a further 50% (25% of new) over the next 5 years. Tesla seems to look favourable in comparison to this... I imagine there is a clear delineation at 4years and 50k miles for the warranty, and again at 8yrs for the battery. The former being evident in any car i would think, and the latter in all EVs.
I'm afraid we don't track ICE, and the 15% was per year taken from a website in the US. I think it very much depends on the model, and many makes of car discount the cars you don't pay list, but I wouldn't argue with 50% over 3 years in the UK.
Autotrader prices today 2019 and 2020 model year cars. Approx 4 years old M3 SR - £40k new 120k miles - £13k 85k miles - £15k 60k miles - £16k M3 LR - £48k new 100k miles - £16k 80k miles - £17k 60k miles - £18k M3 Performance £56k new 100k miles - £16k 90k miles £18k 70k - £20k 60k - £21k They're all bang on the typical UK depreciation curve for all cars, not just ice. But critically, the Tesla will have saved up to £2k per 10,000 miles. So 60k miles - £12,000 100k miles £20,000. Which makes the per mile cost of ownership outright, far lower than ICE in any case.
Is this a symptom of the regions being supplied by these factories and their varying temperatures/climate? China made going to Europe and Chinese market, and US made to US mainly (with some variation).
It's more to do with different factories using different suppliers. US use Panasonic heavily, China uses LG, although there are other suppliers as well.
@Tesla-Info I understand that, but it would be interesting to map country of sale/residence over the data too. There may be some correlation that goes beyond chemistry from particular cell manufacturers. Or indeed, correlation with better performance in certain climates
Make sure the manufacture date is around summer 2021, this is when they started introducing LFP batteries for Model 3 and Y. You can check this info with the VIN (Vehicle Identification Number) which the seller will provide for you. Apparently the 55 kWh from China rather than Fremont seem to be of better quality of manufacture, so you can go for that too (though I think US sold cars don't get imported), although someone else mentioned that the Vremont batteries in the US simply exist in hotter climates which will influence it's lifespan. The main point is don't buy NCM battery Teslas unless you want to spend extra 10k in a few years to replace the battery...
I wouldn't personally worry too much, and even if the method below gives a lower than expected reading it may simply be a case the BMS needs help calibrating or the cells beed balancing - both relatively easy to do. Accepting that, there is a quick and dirty way however to see the battery capacity tesla-info.com/blog/battery-degradation.php
Super fascinating. I work with data scientists and have been looking at domeatic battery degredation numbers, but havent seen any comprehensive Manufacturer specific degradation broken down like this by model and year. It's very helpful. I'm in the market to buy a used EV this year, and had been considering an older high mileage Tesla. The stability of the 75D is suddenly very appealing where i was less interested in it before. And the different model 3 chemistries, not just the model year being a factor, but manufacturing location! I need to find a way to ask dealers more info they can actually answer to make shortlisting easier. Dealers know nothing of this kind of data.
If you want to know where a car was built you can look at the VIN, our website has a VIN decoder but there's a letter just before the number that tells you the factory, F is fremont/US, C is China, B is Berlin, in Europe we don't get any from Austin Texas
What is your source for the inventory on your site? because Tesla removed VIN numbers from the URLs and I thought they made it impossible to track the inventory anymore. So how do you get your inventory numbers? Your site just says it comes from Tesla directly but I imagine they do not provide that directly?
Great video. Nice to see some data to illuminate the issue. An interesting point was the variance in the smaller sample sizes - could indicates some consumers still be exposed to very high early costs / performance issues. Would be great to see something that looks into vehicle vehicle age and mileage at age vs failure probability. Very reassuring to see the data. Great work
Comforts me into buying a SR with LFP battery, on the used market i have around 25k euros budget, ideally 17-18k but finding a model 3 for that price won't be easy Fingers crossed i won't face any big issues not covered under warranty cause I'm taking a big risk putting 20k+ in that instead of putting it in savings, the apartment etc.. x)
An now that Elon fired a large part of the Supercharger Team, there’s no hope of seeing any mitigation solution for battery degradation. It would have been nice to see some pulse charging protocole during supercharging to prolong the batteries life cycles…but I guess that when you are a billionaire, battery degradation is not a problem.
