One thing to add; the max charging speed on the standard range model y is 230kW compared to 250 in all of the Model Y variants. I made a mistake saying they were the same in this video.

@mathieusturkenboom Год назад

Have you watched any of brandon flashes videos? DO NOT BUY a 4680 Model Y The peak charging yes is 230kw But it tappers off And the overall curve is horrible. 2x as long to charge versus a 2170 model

People just need to chill out on dissecting the battery details. Range isn’t an issue as long as you have a good level 2 charger at home. I have the 2023 Performance and it’s a rocket, great car.

@Kareem-cx4fi Год назад

Yeah, the charging curve on that 4680 model y is horrendous. If you don't road trip am sure it's fine as a daily, but if you road trip frequently, that charging curve is the worst in Tesla's lineup. The model 3 rwd peaks at 175kw and has a way better charging curve, in addition to charging faster from a amount of time spent waiting at the charger and mph gained in super charging.

@mathieusturkenboom Год назад

@@Kareem-cx4fi personally Of the build quality Is superior Id still choose the 4680 since i supercharge once in a blue moon. I looks like tesla cancelled their 4680 cell projects It was supposed to be the fastest charging cells ever and cheapest And now Nobodies been talking about it for a while.

I just bought the RWD Model Y up here in Canada and while it has 30 miles less than the American made SR, it has the LFP cells that can be charged to 100% and its frankly awesome.

@Fumbiii16 Год назад

Nca and ncm is better than lfp especially in cold climates and you’re in Canada. L. Should have stuck with the lr. Charging it up to 100 everyday is not good same as any other batteries. It can handle it more than the ncm and nca but it’s not recommended or healthy to charge it every year for every year to 100. Common L. It should be charged 90 regularly not 100. Just wearing out the battery faster than normal.

@justinb.7685 Год назад

You Should have got the performance. I have the 2023 model and it’s a rocket. And gets the range. People need to chill and simply realize, the range isn’t an issue one way or another as long as you have a level 2 charger at home.

Having had a 3LR for 18 months I feel the range is irrelevant. It doesn't really matter if the car does 220,250 or 300 miles. I stop more often than that and actually enjoy the charge stop and have a proper break.

@epcalderhead Год назад

Totally agree with an addendum. My 3 is the LR RWD. On long trips I can keep the battery in the perfect zone mentioned by Jeff Dahn for battery longevity, thanks to the range of that car. Around 75 minutes is all I want to sit in the car before getting out. A shorter range LFP would also be good for this style of travel.

@baldbikeboy Год назад

My first Tesla was a 2021 Model S LR, with 405 rated miles. My second, and current Tesla is a 2022 Model Y LR, rated at 330 miles. For the majority of us, it doesn’t matter, because my bladder needs emptying before I run out of range. Plus, Tesla Superchargers are fun to experience, so we look forward to stopping. Don’t get me started on how much more relaxing it is to stop more often for shorter periods!

Much quieter, hw4, screen is nore snappy and i think its overall much better. Taking it on a trip to ohio from central florida end of October. We'll see how it goes.

@ezpoppy55 Год назад

I got my M3 SR+ in March 2021 for just under $40K out the door, including red paint. LR was +$10K more, and the P was $14K over the SR. I have just as much fun, get all the OTA updates, have access to the Supercharger network, and get all the perks and benefits of the EV lifestyle - plus saved myself a boatload of dough in the purchase, AND the daily operation (it’s so damn efficient!). Don’t sell the SR short just on the numbers on a spec sheet. I’ve been across the US and up and down the West Coast in my trusty SR! Great video as always. 👍🏼

@sunnysider6350 5 месяцев назад

sorry for your $$$ loss, 'bro. Absolutely brutal.

@danhall4293 Год назад

I bought a M3SR a year ago. I can charge the LFP to 100% and I get 250-260 real world range in mixed driving - and if I only drive it around town I get almost exactly the EPA range of 269. The worst range I got was last winter on a 200 mile, 75MPH drive on a frigid, very windy day. So I stopped at a charger and in the time it took to walk inside, use the restroom, pour a cup of coffee, pay for it, and walk back to the car, I had almost 100 more miles of range. Unless you can’t charge at home, routinely drive an insane number of miles and live in an area devoid of fast chargers, this kind of range is absolutely fine. I honestly NEVER even think about range now, just like I don’t think about it in my gas car.

@edwcory Год назад

@howifixedit.9076 Год назад

Each automaker decides which EPA test to run. Clearly Tesla uses the test cycle which greatly inflates the range whereas the Germans car makers tend to under promise and overdeliver. Ideally there should be 1 test cycle so you can compare apples to apples.

@User.Joshua Год назад

I know there are a lot of EV owners with small bladders from what I am seeing around the web, but I would simply prefer the 300-400 miles of real world range over the ubiquity of fast chargers. Charging takes way too long, even in Teslas. Moreover, charging will become even more of an annoyance once EV adoption rates exceed ICE vehicles; sitting in a queue for charging is not the best use of time, which totally negates faster charging speeds.

@dadman9492 Год назад

Had an opportunity with my MYLR this past weekend, a road tip where the interstate distance was 168 miles out and back for a 336 mile journey. Average speed was 70MPH resulting in 3.96 mi/kw vs rated efficiency of 4.4 mi/kw, a 10% loss. I did the same trip last year in a hybrid with a personal average MPG of 42.8. My Trip MPG for the same route was 38 MPG, an 11% loss. this is comparable to Out of Spec Reviews 70 MPH test on the MYLR.

I have this car and after 8k miles no battery degradation, get about 85 percent of advertised range without babying it. On city streets avg 240 wh/mi. I have driven to vegas 5 times and have had no issues with anything. Its ride is more comfortable than any model y I have driven. It is plenty fast and the range has never been a problem at all. 1 stop from la to vegas. Ride is very quiet even with the radio off, I actually have 0 complaints since buying this car and I'm trying to find things i do not like. My fuel savings is 5/1 over my ice car. Charging speeds can be slower than other MY's that is maybe the only drawback.

@t1328 Год назад

As a former Model Y LR owner, I’ve found that not only is the advertised range very far off from the real world range, but some other cars, like my current 2019 Audi e-tron, have an Efficiency mode that dramatically increases range, including automatically switching the AC to an Econ mode (but allowing you to undo that), lowering the car’s ride height and so on, resulting in far higher ranges on long road trips than their advertised range. So in my case, the official range is 209m. But in the real world, if I go on a road trip and stay at 65mph on highways, my range is 290 miles. This is a longer range than my 2020 Model Y Long Range had in the real world at 65 mph at the time. If I’m not in efficiency mode, my range is definitely somewhat less than the Model Y’s was, but since I have a home charger, that really doesn’t bother me. Tesla should stop the false advertising, but they should also invest in better more tech for efficiency driving on longer road trips.

Inter webs say the charging curve on the 4680 is slower and the range is less. Not sure if it matters when road tripping as there are so many Tesla chargers. Make a purchase “from existing inventory” and the price drops even more.

@richardcoughlin8931 Год назад

I opted for the SR model Y largely because I go on very few road trips so the extra range is not important to me. Every two months I do a 210 mile daily round-trip from Palm Springs to Anaheim via a stop in Redlands. Starting with 100% charge I complete the trip with around 20% left when I get home. So for me saving $3000 on the purchase was a no-brainer. In addition, I have found good use for the rear shelf, not included in the LR model, when parking with packages or luggage that I do not want to be visible The build quality of my 2023 is exceptionally good. I literally could find no problems with the fit and finish. I agree that Tesla’s hype over the 4680 battery was a big nothing burger. I am taking some risk that the 4680 will hold up as well as the 2170 battery, but so far so good.

The more you charge the more important FAST charging is. Most people with kids on a road trip only want to stop for a few minutes to get the driving out of the way. That said yes they will stop to eat. So if the car could do 400 miles real world range that would fix the issue. Drive until it's time to eat. Charge speed would have to be quick enough so after eating a mcdonalds meal the car is charged. So that's 30 minutes tops

@DrRussPhd 3 месяца назад

A 400 mile range Model Y would annihilate all other cars, including ICE cars. My 11 year old Prius V can still get over 320 miles/tank on long trips. As to your question of why Tesla can't be honest about vehicle range the answer starts at the top of the company, namely Elmo, who seems to be allergic to the truth, unless he stands to personally profit from it. Having driven a AWD LR Model Y twice and really enjoyed it , the FSD was a freaky experience, I am still considering buying one, EXCEPT that unmentioned expense of having to upgrade my home electrical service from 100amps to 200 amps. It is something the sales rep at the dealership never asked or mentions.

@jimfergusondev Год назад

0:57 The range is entirely dependent on speed and acceleration. The state of charge indicates that he achieved the expected range at 45 mph. I drove 450 miles, with a maximum speed of FSD 85 mph, which required 3 supercharging stops. When I limited the maximum speed to FSD 80 mph, it resulted in 2 supercharging stops. So, it's clear that speed significantly affects range due to aerodynamics.

@itiswhatitis...9648 Год назад

speed, wind, and elevation are the biggest range killers

@pippipster6767 Месяц назад

Yes. If I drive my model Y very carefully I can get 300 miles. If I am flooring it and darting about all over the place it will be 200 miles. But it’s exactly the same as with a petrol car. Very careful driving will add about one third.

@slyguyaction Год назад

We have a 2022 RWD Model 3 and absolutely love it. Sure, it has fewer miles of range than a Performance or Long Range Model 3 but that doesn't matter as much in our use case. With reliable SuperChargers all over the place coupled with charging at home it just a super easy car to live with. We roadtripped it ½ way across the US and back with zero issues. The ability to full charge the LFP battery often is an easy sell to someone whose experience with batteries is limited to a laptop or a cellphone. For us, it's less about the overall range but more about ease of charging. Great video.

Sorry to disappoint you, but no other EV has a displayed range accurate. The other EV display the range based on the previous driving history. But this doesn’t mean it’s accurate. If you drove the previous day only in the city, you’ll have a displayed range based on the city driving. If you drive today on a highway, the displayed range at the start of the trip will be so different than the range you'll get in this case that you’ll think your car is bad or something worse happened to your battery. So yeah, I’d say you should do your homework before talking about what other EV display in their GOM. Use the Energy screen and you’ll have in the Tesla the same thing other EV have in their GOM.

You can easily get the EPA range if you’re willing to drive 70mph or less. We get 270 miles on the nose every charge commuting (which keeps the speed below 70) in our RWD Model 3 but if we head out on a trip and kick it up our range suffers. Typically during the commute we are averaging 180watts a mile. On a trip at higher speeds that jumps to 240 to 250 watts per mile. I have also noticed if you need lots of heat or AC from the HVAC you will drop efficiency a bit as well.

Interesting, I’m planning to get a Model Y but since the new reports is slow charging speed on the standard awd im thinking the LR could be the better deal for long term ownership, what you think ?

@Gjeebs Год назад

If the cost difference doesn't bother you then go with the long range

@b4804514 Год назад

I test drove the Austin vs the Fremont and the Austin car is much more solid feeling. It drives differently, rides differently. The giga casting IMO make a huge difference in the durability of the car. It is 3 pieces basically to make the chassis all solid inflexible.

@marcconnery Год назад

I just checked their website, they are no longer offering the SR to be ordered new. They are still offering it in inventory I got my LR as inventory with $3000 off, now they same trim is only $2000 off

@jeffreyblanton9877 11 месяцев назад

I have this car and absolutely love it. The trunk cover sucks and the windshield wiper cleaning spray is terrible but other than that I have no complaints. I wish Tesla would make a 4680 model 3 AWD.

@ianbladuell2694 Год назад

Are you going to be making more stops on road trips, so that’s your trade-off if you’re OK with that

@lsufan861 7 месяцев назад

Is this a 2024? I'm looking at the SR with 19'' and Black Interior and they are all different prices. What's the difference if I'm filtering with the same options?

@rostad89 Год назад

I have delivery day on my first tesla, a MYLR in 5 days and i cant wait 🤩 your channel is the reason i choose the car and you are by far my favorite creator when it comes to tesla content! Let me know if you ever come to Norway 😎😁

No car, gas or electric meets its EPA mpg or range when compared to real world conditions. The number and testing methods are governed by public law, details are easily discovered by a simple internet search. Don’t like the number, convince the EPA to change the test. You’re spitting into the wind with your complaint.

@vicheaterx Год назад

Europe gets 7k EUR (~7,500 USD) from MY SR to MY LR, blue paint costs 70% more (1,600 EUR vs. 1,000 USD) and so on. Damn...

I have a ‘22 MY LR, and get about 270 wh/mi long term average over 12k miles. I can get 250 wh/mi, but I have to be driving below 70 mph, averaging 60-65 mph at mixed freeway speeds. Real world expectations are about 180 to 220 miles at 70 mph driving 80% to 10%, depending on wind, and cargo weight. Which isn’t bad, but I wouldn’t believe the numbers Tesla promises for my Tesla on 20” wheels.

@blanketwodahs6741 Год назад

I do not think the 4680s are at endgame yet. The 4680s are supposed to be solid state. If Tesla was mass producing actual solid state batteries it would be huge huge news. My guess is right now they are just putting normal battery guts into 4680 form factor.

@NabileCoulibaly 10 месяцев назад

Would you ever go back to an ICE car? I am in the marker for car right now and looking at the BMW 230xi.

@teslarex Год назад

2023 Y Performance about 280 wh/mi rated. Smooth mixed driving in SoCal can get close. freeway 60mph level ground autopilot well below 200 wh/mi. 303 rated range on 21s ride is firm but not harsh. I think Performance is a great value over base-looks performance etc

@Chevy2U Год назад

Did a road trip from northern CA to Scottsdale AR recently, I chose my V8 Jeep Grand Cherokee over my Tesla 2022 MYP with free SuperCharging. Again EVs are great for around town and short trips and 0 - 60mph in 3.5s never gets old.

@venkateshandavan4122 9 месяцев назад

In latest models variants I think model y as same battery pack in RWD vs AWD…lithium ion…

@laloajuria4678 Год назад

you are giving up 50 miles which should be a 7K reduction. worse charging curve. not worth it.

@jeffpicken5057 Год назад

100% agree on the BS mileage numbers. We need to start a campaign to get that changed. #mileagehonesty or some such thing. On your comment about range anxiety going away when more superchargers are installed, I think that’s only half the issue. Charging needs to be faster. If the range doesn’t improve or goes down and I need to charge frequently, it had better be faster or it will continue to be a frustration point. The charging experience needs to be similar in timing and frequency to an ICE vehicle if you want buy-in from the masses.

@정의구-f1c 9 месяцев назад

so, the US version of this RWD model Y doesn't come with LFP battery, but 4680?

@dyhppyx Год назад

You are right. If u drive fast no good for range. I am actually able to achieve EPA on my model 3 but no fast hwy driving. Strong ac can take about 5-10% too.

@LouDeVere Год назад

Thanks for the video. Here in Australia we're lucky with the Chinese built MY standard range, to have a CATL LFP battery not the 4680 cells used in the North American version. I don't find the range a problem at all as we purely do city/highway driving and always charge at home using off peak electricity at just over 8c/kWHr (5.5c US) so with solar, it costs us virtually nothing to charge. Great car. Very happy we went with the Tesla MY. I find 0-100 kM/Hr (0-60mph in US) fast enough!

@Sam-gs7yb Год назад

Tesla is still top EV because of it charging network. But the competition already has in some cases better VEHS overall just not as good charging network. Once solid state batteries or some other more efficient battery comes on line then they may lose the lead entirely.

@ratukamina Год назад

My 2023 Model Y LR 7seater just died yesterday while it had 254 miles of range left. I needed to use it later in the afternoon and the car wasn't connecting in the Tesla app nor was the keycard able to open the car. It was dead sitting on the driveway with less than 5500 on the odometer. Tesla sent a 3rd party tow truck and driver said he tows a bunch of teslas per day and 5 of them had this issue today. He jumped the 12. volt lithium ion battery and said this battery overheats and shuts itself down. the car was driving fine after that. 3 hours later car is unresponsive again. I've had a bunch of new cars before but none died on me this was a first and surprisingly at just 5500 miles.

@Trust_but_Verify Год назад

Let us know if the fix was to replace the 12v battery. What was the temperature that timewhen the car died?

@ratukamina Год назад

@@Trust_but_Verify Yes it was hot temp was in the 90s. I contacted Tesla roadside assistance again but was told to pay few hundred for towing to service center since (according to paperwork) I was advised to drive car to service center instead of it being towed however I don’t recall the tow truck driver saying that all he insisted on was that I drive the car around for 5 mins which I did while he waited in his truck. So since I declined to pay I have to schedule service and jumpstart it on my own and drive to service center.

@ratukamina Год назад

@@Trust_but_Verify update cars high voltage battery controller was replaced and it was working fine until two days ago it was dead again with main battery at 74%. I jump started and left it at the service center. At this point this vehicle is very unreliable luckily it has been dying while parked on the driveway so I had the jump starter in my garage to unlock and start it otherwise no point in even carrying a jump starter in the car if traveling since car would die and stay locked.

Yea I think theirs is done on Dynos which is perfectly legal but I also think that's why they fall short in real life

@kirivanyam5969 Год назад

@Gjeebs Still what about datas from their employees and customers about real world range? Did they not take that into consideration or feint on EPA only to get more sales. We'll probably see more stranded Model 2s in the future. Lol

@ScrappyPooPoo 7 месяцев назад

Why are the 0-60 speeds so different in different countries. In canada the RWD Model Y goes 0-60 in 6.9 seconds and the Long Range does 5 seconds. But ythis guy is saying the RWD does it in 5 and the Long range does it in 4.8.

The charging curve sucks on the base model y. 🐌

@telerye Год назад

when looking at the difference of SR vs. LR on the trip planner it looks like the LR charges a lot faster. Goes from 40 minute stops to 15-20 minute stops. Does that sound about right in real world?

@itiswhatitis...9648 Год назад

not that much difference....from first hand experience if it says 20 min on LR, SR would take 25

@Dr_Flankensteinn Год назад

Like others have mentioned - it'd be highly advisable to do a charging test and record it compared to your LR so you can confirm what we all believe - the SR charging curve is horrible - could it be fixed with a software update? I would imagine YES!
