Although I love geeky tests like this, you're doing it wrong. As your testing progressed, your tires got hotter and hotter because you didn't start cold each time. When Tesla says 42 PSI, that is cold. 42 really means that operating PSI will be closer to about 47 after warming. If you want to do this test right, then start each time with cold tires or your results will be seriously flawed. Tire pressure generally increases by about 1 psi for every 8 degree increase in tire temperature. Typical tires experience a temperature increase of 40-50 degrees after running on the highway for a half-hour

@darkhorse2reign Год назад

So could he just take tire Temps and adjust tire psi?

@darkhorse2reign Год назад

When doing air pressure in tires, you also have to account for which side of the car may be in direct sunlight. Those tires will be starting at a higher "cold" PSI than tires in the shade. Happened to me a lot in trucking. There are other little things I learned such as filling up tires at sea level or high altitude. Moving (in a truck) from one altitude to another makes a significant difference in tire pressures.

@thefirstdude Год назад

This is the correct answer. This should be a 3-day test, with similar weather and temperatures each day.

@leveluplife8585 6 месяцев назад

It could be a one day test, but you would want to start with low pressure and work your way up ideally. Unless I’m thinking about it wrong also

@nissan_skyline 11 дней назад

@cigersuz Год назад

Most important aspect: braking distance. Much more important than range. And it changes immensely when you over inflate or less than recommended.

@edsinofsky Год назад

we see similar results with modern bike tires. High pressure is lower rolling losses but higher suspension losses (bike or car goes up and down when hitting roughness). Lower pressure and the bike (or car) goes over the road more smoothly and even faster. Lately the lower I go the faster and smoother it seems... to a point...

@baranguler1168 Год назад

A few things to remember when choosing tyre pressure on Tesla vehicles, for safety reasons. Tesla is optioning for one recommendation and that is 42 psi. That be driving on Autobahn doing 100+mph, driving with heavy trailer and or with full load capacity (people and cargo). Tyre pressure is determined by weight of car + load and highspeed driving. 98XL tyre model 3 OEM wheel at 42psi has a load capacity of 1650lbs. If you dropp the pressures load capacity will also be low. If you drive with empty (max 3 people) it's safe to lower the pressures. And vacation with family and cargo, you should opt for more pressure on rear tyres (45psi) to minimize flex. Driving with 45+psi on empty car and thinking you would save gas or KWh is wrong. As you want a bit of flex in tyres so the car glides over unpuritys on the road, for better aerodynamics. The higher the pressure the bumpier the ride becomes. And every time the car bounces energy is wasted in vertical movement. Tyres job is consistent of many small suspensions, to find the right amount of pressure you must know the weight.

@danburstein7009 Год назад

Ben, I'll add one more factor that may have skewed results...outside air temp....hotter air is less dense causing less air resistance and more range all else same. If you started test in the morning when cooler by the time you ran the 37 psi test with hotter temp that would make the range better then if temp was the same for all 3 tests. I agree with other comments longer test loop, starting with cold tire pressures, same battery charge, etc would also help get more accurate results.

@mattthecat779 Год назад

Rolling resistance doesn’t matter as much at highway speeds it’s more about aero. Better test would be in town low/medium speed.

@dmontz28 Год назад

Good video interesting. What kinda camera do you use ? Very good picture!! Thanks for the videos

@sarchizm 4 месяца назад

One thing you didn't consider was the over inflated tire became larger which means you went farther with each roll of the tire. That would increase efficiency a little. And the deflated tire was smaller doing the opposite.

@dyhppyx Год назад

If u get a model y performance again can u please test how the brakes perform vs the long range?

@garyreysa4729 4 месяца назад

Some suggestions on test improvements: Warm the tires up before the first run so that all runs start with warmed up tires - this takes at least 10 miles. Get something like a Kestrel anemometer and measure the wind speed at the start and end of each run. Do a loop course is good and helps to eliminate wind effects, but its not perfect. Do the three runs you did, and then repeat the 47 psi run - this lets you know if conditions have changed in the course of the testing. If you get the same results on both 47 psi runs, that's a big credibility boost. Doing multiple loops at each pressure would tell you whether your testing method is working - if the loops at the same pressure agree well with each other, that's a major boost in your test method credibility. Each loop could be made shorter so you are not out there all day driving. I do some MPG tests for different camper van configurations and have put a fair bit of time into coming up with a good MPG method - Its documented on the Build A Green RV website under the Tests tab, Roof rack MPG effect test. Thanks for your work on this.

@O1Adeoti Год назад

The opening sarcasm with a straight face is hilarious

@WinstonMakes Год назад

I think your best bet would be to turn off regen and do a coast-down test on a long stretch of quiet road. That would really let you identify subtle differences in rolling resistance. Too many variables with other cars on a road.

@carssucksince1800s Год назад

Can't turn off regen in a Tesla, you can reduce it, but not completely turn off.

@garys6898 Год назад

I can't even reduce it anymore, I wish I could make it a little stronger

@pepstein Год назад

Only way to turn off regen is to put the car in neutral.

@rkgsd Год назад

Before the "comfort suspension" came out, Elon suggested 39 PSI instead of 42.

@DeeSock Год назад

Could be if you did high pressure loop again at end you might find efficiency improved due to battery temp is perfect, cabin is already cooled, tires are similar temperature to other loops etc

@baldisaerodynamic9692 Год назад

i would do a city test loop at each psi. try to find some local stop and go. do it in regular mode too.

@marlixholdings3318 Год назад

Did you factor in wind resistance? Going the same route each time? Wind speed will effect the outcome.

@bh9262 10 месяцев назад

How will using 37 psi affect tire wear and wet road safety and general handling?

@fredsalter1915 Год назад

50psi for the win!!! FTW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Sorry for the edit. Stock OEM psi will lead to excess outer tire wear an leave you with extra tread right in the middle of the tire. Over inflate 5 pounds and you will get even tire tread wear.

@franktheteslatank Год назад

I know your preference in tires is Michelin. My wife had the CrossClimate2 installed on her Ford Fusion. We loved them. I’d like to hear your thoughts on the Hankook ION EVO AO SUV, whether you test them yourself, previous research or if you know someone that has them installed on their Tesla. From my research, Hankook seems to be the better choice over Michelin. Again, I’d like to hear your thoughts on the subject. Thanks in advance.

@stevea8099 10 месяцев назад

I much prefer the ride quality with 38psi compared to 42psi. how does 37/38 tire pressure change acceleration in the tesla model 3 compared to recommended 42 psi?

@50freecalls Год назад

Where can I find that phone mount you had on top of the steering column?

@LordLoMR2 10 месяцев назад

On the Tesla OE tires, pressure doesn’t seem to affect range much because the tires have much stiffer sidewalls. But if you opt for the cheaper tires not designed for EVs, you will see a difference with more psi.

Hidden tesla cost Teslas are generally very very heavy so.expect tires wear out every two years i have a model x and have replaced tires twice in two years. As far as a compressor does it get really hot ? Does it come with some gloves or something how do you safely move it from tire to tire ?

@experiencex70 Год назад

on my 2019 M3 SR the door says 45psi?

@cyclopsvision6370 Год назад

There isn't much difference because of the short distance. You might see a more dramatic difference if the test distance was longer.

@byronbergman8264 Год назад

As long as the trips are identical, the only thing that changes as you increase the distance is that the statistical "accuracy" is probably better

@TurreTuntematon Год назад

If the % efficiency stays the same then travelled distance does not matter.

@sooocheesy Год назад

True, but the dude drove 60 miles for science. If you want to do a longer test then knock yourself out (and post the video)

I think for a true and more accurate test. Same road for all conditions longer distance . All at full charge. This would require more work obviously but can see the best data.

@Zickcermacity 6 месяцев назад

6:20 It's interesting how fuel/current efficieny DROPPED slightly at the higher(47psi) than Tesla recommende pressure. Probably the same in the case of gas/diesel powered vehicles. The reason is that with the smaller contact patch at higher than recommended, there is minute slipping going on during acceleration, especially from a dead stop.

@howardschoenberger3526 Год назад

Don't think you drove enough. I know in my old 2002 Prius higher tire pressure always got me better range.

@dyhppyx Год назад

Good test idea regardless

@orihime15 2 месяца назад

maybe this is a more effective test NOT on freeways but on more stop and go city streets. having a low psi coming from a frequent stop and go decreases efficiency compared with high psi which rolls the tires more easily and efficiently.

@davidtrevino5753 2 месяца назад

Question, how fast does it inflate? Say 35 to 42…etc… Thank you

@bradytorvik6294 Год назад

Interesting, I lowered my tire pressure to 37 PSI a while ago and haven't noticed any range loss either. Strange. On the other hand I haven't found the ride quality that much better either so maybe I just don't notice much.

@dinosaurd7295 Год назад

Just picked up my MYP today. I used your referral code. Thank you for all the content you make, I always look forward to new videos. I’m considering changing my 21” wheels for some 20” with hankook ions. I tested with a decibel reader and my old BMW x3 2019 on 19” run flats was about 4-5 decibels quieter than the MYP on 21” with Michelins.

@pvdoug Год назад

I have a 22 MS and lowered my tire pressure for a smoother ride until I realized that could cause the tires to blow out.. it is very dangerous to under inflate tires on a Tesla due to the weight of the vehicle.

@Gjeebs Год назад

Yea under inflating is very stupid unless you are going to the track where they will heat up a lot

@KevinSizemore Год назад

You didn't account for the weight of the extra electrons in the battery on the 1st two loops

@codehack3043 Год назад

It looks like that screen would be impossible to read in the sun. I noticed you only showed it in the shade. Also, I bet there is a more pronounced ride quality difference with 19” wheels? More rubber to deflect with the lower tire pressure?

@Gjeebs Год назад

Never had an issue seeing the screen in the sun and this model has 18" wheels so maybe 19's would be different with tire pressure

Both 37 psi and 47 psi are bad ideas, the guaranteed results are well known. Under inflation = poorer handling, longer brakes distance. Over inflation = faster wear in the center of the tread and a harsh ride.

@Gjeebs Год назад

@boraimran 3 месяца назад

the reason there is no effect because ev tyres design to be very flat alongh width . normal car tyres not, so as you increase pressure normal car tyres gets less contact with surface which increases efficiency. but ev tyres not much effected buy pressure in terms of surface contact. the only thing you can do changing tyre size with less contact on surface such as 255 to 225 tyres. but this time traction and handling will be poor
