#tesla #model3
They look the same but one of these cars is a Tesla Model 3 Long Range from 2021 and the other from 2022.
Tesla don’t tell you this stuff or what’s changed but here we can tell you the differences between the two.
One of the most notable is that the newer cars have a bigger battery. So how does that translate into more real-world range? How much further (if at all) does it go.
79kwh Lg v 75kwh
One of these is more efficient but it may not be the one you expect.
Do aero covers make a difference to efficiency?
How quickly do they charge?
I think there’s one small difference responsible for the surprising results..
For example of pre 2021 refesh model 3 v heat pump model, check out this video: • Heat Pump difference…?...
Thanks for watching!

Older tires become more efficient and less grippy. I'm noticing my 2019 model 3 get more efficient and start to get tire chirp on turns. It's almost time for new tires but I love the efficiency gains of these old tires.

@shariif Год назад

Just buy 2nd hand tyres if that is the case

@ChipMIK Год назад

;-) Smaller rolling-diameter when wearing out vs. new tires. This = Your car believes it drives longer than when on new tires & due to this, at an actual slower speed too vs. what the cars tells you. So just look forward to those new tires and enjoy :-)

@Samuel-ks5gv Год назад

@@ChipMIK I know the slightly smaller diameter makes a difference in the distance calculation but I have noticed my commute is using less battery percentage than 3 years ago. And it's a fact that older tires become more efficient but loses grip.

@tesla-spectre Год назад

great video as always. I have a late 2021 which I believe is identical to the 2022. I also have the bigger LG battery. overall a brilliant car, enormously efficient and just a joy. such back to back tests are very important. of course the newer models always have some advantages but even the first model 3 are in my view a great buy even with high mileage. Only thing to be careful about: if people did not install mud flaps that is bad for the door sills and the stones and gravel can easily damage the paint and produce corrosion later on. and since that is then not from the inside it would not be covered by the 12yr corrosion warranty. BUT/: if one has the tesla mud flaps I would highly recommend to take them off once in spring and clean behind them since they accumulate dirt. no big deal, I led Tesla do it when exchanging thee air filters anyway (I have high mileage already after 10 months ;) ) and it cost around 15€ 😂 not worth doing it oneself for that little money

I think you are right, the number plate plus the boot lip will both create more drag. Which is a shame when Tesla has gone to all that trouble to make a very efficient car. 😮

@frankelf3151 Год назад

Also my guess the newer grippier tyres are less efficient. Eco tyres for example don't tend to have the best grip but have better efficiency.

@rdbeswick Год назад

My old 2021 M3LR (9,950 miles when I sold it) M3LR had a better ride, than my new 2022 M3LR. However, new car is seems much quieter, wind noise has been greatly reduced. I agree with you on the number plate, more of an impact the rear spoiler. Once again, top notch video, very well done!!

@kevinwhite8836 Год назад

Richard, the slight efficiency difference could well be the extra weight of the larger battery. Not sure what the weight difference between you two is as well. If you really want to get nerdy about figures, maybe you need to even up driver weight as well by adding some ballast to lighter driver (assuming there is a difference of course), but we are just ironing out very minor differences here.

@PlanetCypher_ Год назад

Take the plate off and re run, I’m sure you have trade plates to put in the window. Nice test 👍

@keepfitbunny9919 Год назад

Another excellent video Richard. My 2021 M3 SR+ with LFP battery is exactly a year old today. Sadly I have kept a complete record of all costs and charging over this year. Driving has mainly been in town with very occasional longer motorway trips. Based on the Odometer readings on the screen I have used 1146 kWh but I believe this is only when car is in Drive. In reality I have used 1500 kWh based on charging records (home and superchargers) which is 30% more. I assume this is due to pre-heating the car in winter, pre-cooling car and overheat protection, in winter, and keeping climate control on when parked. The range based on the odometer figures and assuming a 52 kW battery is 200 miles in winter (October to March), 235 miles in summer (April to September), and 215 miles overall. In reality and based on actual energy usage though these ranges drop by 23% to 24%

@eurimcoplimsoll1117 Год назад

Don't forget simple charging losses giving you that gap being what's delivered to the car and what your electric bill tells you. Converting home AC to DC for the car to charge with will incur losses ( heat in cable, losses in the conversion ) and expect that to be worse in winter. I have measured things too, so if I have say 16kWh going into the car battery , then I often found I have needed 18kWh to get there. Of course as you say using pre heat/cooling , Sentry etc will add to the "extra" energy needed. So as you know when people say they get 200Wh/mile or whatever the reality is that is it a bit more. It's a bit like filling an ICE car and a significant amount of the fuel evaporates away as you fill it and some evaporates away with the car standing.

@keepfitbunny9919 Год назад

I can see how charging losses can contribute - a bit like friction loss in pipes

@Kiev50f Год назад

Would the older car be “run in” better? Brakes, bearings, gears in the motor etc?

@69Thylacine Год назад

i think it is a combination of all the factors u mentioned :)

@ricarmig Год назад

There are more sources for better efficiency on oder models: - the older battery already had the initial "optimization" cycles (on the oder side, if it's too old, then has too many cycles...) - all bearings and moving parts (from the engine, tires, brakes...) have already the "running" where friction parts have already adapted to each other. I would be more interested to know if the build quality (which includes wind and noise isolation) is compared to equivalent cars, where tesla has been lacking...

@corbett666 Год назад

I was going to say the number plate when I saw them side by side! I put a stick on one on my performance model 3 and seen slightly better range since, to the point I’m always beating the range estimate!

@philmackavitie1074 Год назад

Great comparison test guys, I really love this sort of fact-checking. Certainly, with the massive attention to detail that Tesla put into their designs, that sodding great brick of a number-plate housing in the middle of the most critical areodynamic section of the whole vehicle is like sticking a flat licence plate on the nose of a jet aircraft. Not going to assist smooth airflow much, particularly at higher speeds. Someone at Tesla UK needs to be educated. I have the same model, but it's company car, so can't change it. Also consider the loosening-up of moving components in the drive-train over time.

@hareshkaria8377 Год назад

Another great review & comparison between oldish & new 3s. But the other cars with over 300k miles - wow! I'd normally shy away from high mile cars but goes to show but it would be interesting to see costs over the year's. Also, is their a significant weight difference between u & Gibbs re efficiency difference? 🤣🤣Thanks Rich👍🏽

@OlavAlexanderMjelde Год назад

I have had my 2019 3P since march 19, its been very reliable and hasent cost me a lot in services. Running costs quite low, it also uses quite little energy for travel. So even quick charging on vacation is ok since it goes quite far on each charge. Most likely I will sell it now for a YP though (berlin one). I did testdrive an YP some days ago and I have two on order (will just keep one of them from the order).

@mrmawson2438 Год назад

13:20 that was very interesting 👍

@jgkg Год назад

Interesting. I would think the new chip, plate and spoiler, plus maybe a bit of extra weight. Most of what you mentioned. I'd like to see a 2022 and a pre heatpump 2020 say. Out of interest, My 2020 M3LR is as efficient as my wife's Model Y 2022 with heatpump. Obivously a more efficient shape, but still a suprise. Maybe a 3LR vs a ModelY LR would be interesting! Anyway, thanks, good stuff :-)

@vatiosycosas Год назад

@RSymons RSEV I think the difference is due to the different battery LG vs Panasonic. The old one i bet it's from Fremont Usa ( you can check the last letter of the VIN ) and the new one is from China Shanghai. The old one has the Panasonic one thus more efficient and better charging due to the fact that its tested. The LG ones there will be in par in future updates. Cheers, great videos as always.

@OlavAlexanderMjelde Год назад

Are the tires the same brand? I know in the 3P they went from Pilot Sport 4S to different tires, might also have changed for the 3LR?

@nickwillmott Год назад

How about the ryzen cpu, that apparently uses a few percent more power? Might be the cause of the difference in range?

@TheJAMF Год назад

With the next software update, you can also see the power drain separated per system, like HVAC and drivetrain. As the energy in the battery pack is higher, is it also a heavier battery pack? And more thread on a tyre is also slightly less efficient. So in the next test, include mentioning the weight and pressures, but also try and get the same tyres... and make sure the same settings are kept like autopilot, support mode and cabin temperature.

@trevorberridge6079 Год назад

Good point about the weight. Every little helps (or hinders).

@kiwijonowilson Год назад

Weight can make a difference bug from tests Bjørn Nyland did, it actually doesn't make that much difference. In fact one car he loaded to the gills and got a better consumption result (!) but he thought there could been a small gain from slightly lower ride height with the extra weight. I imagine the spoiler and number plate could make a significant difference.

@stephenlane9168 Год назад

Would love to see the high mileage Tesla video 👌

@nosw2005 Год назад

You need to compare the miles of range when charging since the same percentage of a bigger battery takes more energy so the bigger battery will always take longer to a set percentage! 😊

@jeanbaptistelabelle Год назад

True

@RSEV Год назад

The bigger battery would take longer if charging from the same state of charge. Say from 0% for example. But the point here was they both had to recharge what they used. Which was an almost identical amount. The charging speed was also clearly a little faster on the older car. Both cars triggered pre-heat for charging at the same time so we know the battery temps were the same

@RSEV Год назад

Imagine taking a pint of beer. Drink 30%. Then top up the 30% into a pint glass v a glass a bit bigger than a pint. The bit bigger than a pint glass should be able to top up faster, if anything

@glenndotarcher Год назад

No - you’re not considering that you are measuring recharge rate by percentage of battery capacity. This doesn’t work when you have a constant input kilowatts but different sizes. Imagine that you had one battery that was twice the size of the other - in which case it would appear to charge at half the speed when measured as a percentage. In this case it isn’t twice - but it explains why the larger battery charges slower. Also, interesting observation about the number plate - I think you might be onto something there.

@ricarmig Год назад

@@glenndotarcher it won't be just one thing: - more friction on the newer model (moving parts) - aerodynamic (spoiler, license plate) - heat pump, refrigeration pumps, lighting, etc that all together may work better but may also consume a little more

@wonderonegaz Год назад

Just a note to say that stick on numberplates are legal in the UK, so long as they use the correct reflective material and have the appropriate BSAU mark. The law doesn't distinguish what a plate has to be made from, so long as they conform to the BSAU standard and are produced by an authorised shop. Of course, there are companies who do not sell compliant stick-on ones.

@nickwillmott Год назад

Hi Richard. How about a video comparing Tesla vision with the existing radar/camera collision prevention functionality that you tested with cardboard Elon in your traffic light drag race alleyway. Would be interesting to see if it’s better or worse now. 🧐

@alibro7512 Год назад

It would have been interesting to see if swapping cars made a difference since driving style will have a big impact, even when both cars are essentially being driven at the same speed. I had an old boss who drove as if his accelerator was a switch yet most of the time was no faster than any other cars around him. His fuel and tyre consumption were horrendous.

Did you ever catch up with the 2 model S drivers and do the video about their maintenance journey on the high mileage cars Richard ?

@johnmachinmegavegan8378 Год назад

Hi, Richard. Just watched an American guy on You Tube talk about his LFP Tesla battery. He's been charging it to 100% constantly, and found - after 7,700 miles - the battery has degraded nearly 3%. So he's stopped charging to 100%, except on long journeys. Apparently, the recommendation to fully charge relates only to obtaining a more accurate idea of the charge to range ratio, not for the sake of the battery. The guy says he's not too worried because, even at that degradation rate, the batteries won't fail until the vehicle hits 350,000 miles. I don't think he understands the range will become impractically low long before total battery failure. Just thought you'd like to know there may be an issue with 100% charging - even with LFPs.

Efficiency change? Speed difference? Could it simply be tyre pressures (or even different tyre batches)? The other small differences likely all fall within experimental errors. That number plate will make a difference - especially at higher speeds. The arrival at final destination because of charging speed may be a red herring? Amount of energy added would be different to return to 80% on both cars. I think it needs an in-depth analysis, not a ‘gut feeling’ as you drive along.🙂. One journey (swallow) does not make a summer, as we say…. Enjoyed the video, all the same.

Charging depends on where you parked, and who is next you you? Right. I do a lot of long drives across the US. And I have starting charging where I am the one and only, and get great charge rate. And when it get to a busy, the charge drops, and it takes longer. It depends which charger you pick. If someone pulls out, it gets faster.

@devttt4685 Год назад

@jrgenaksnes2676 Год назад

Old tires lead to lower rolling resistance. And the tire pressure increases consumption by minimum 1% for every 2.4 psi of lower pressure.

@johnm2879 Год назад

A spoiler definitely affects drag. If it is designed to increase downforce, it will distinctly cut efficiency.

@funkyhouseman Год назад

A spoiler like that won't increase down force it will just reduce lift, technically it may actually increase efficiency as it could lower turbulent airflow attaching to the rear of the car. However, being that small it would only move the turbulent air back about 5cm

Rounding is to full kW, so with such a short distance the error is large. In the worst case, one could have 21.49kW and the other 21.51kW, which is a difference of 0.02kW and not 1kW as you said. You are looking for differences not where you need to.

@@RSEV I've had mine on my model 3 since April 2020 and not had any problem but would like to have one on any new Tesla I bought in the future. I'll just keep my fingers crossed 🤞😁

@@RSEV following watching this video (great, as always, by-the-way...!) I did a bit of research... So long as a registration plate meets the requirements of the British Standard BS AU 145e, then they should be perfectly legal, stick-on or not. SO WHAT DO PLATES HAVE TO BE UNDER THE E STANDARD? Durable and able to resist: Impact - Stone chips and minor parking collisions are unfortunately part of driving. The impact test ensures the plate’s longevity. Bending - The components that make up a plate can separate from each other when the plate is bent. This is sometimes called plate delamination. The bend test prevents delamination on BNMA member supplied plates. Thermal change - The UK’s changeable temperature necessitates this test. The plate’s shape and size must remain the same when subjected to heat and cold. Abrasion (NEW) - Plates stay clear and easy-to-read if they pass the abrasion test. This protects against repeated exposure to dirt, road grime and jet-washing. Being removed from a vehicle - Provided adhesive pads are placed correctly along the plate, it will take over 160 hours of consistent pressure to detach a plate that passes the E standard. Weathering - The weathering test under BS AU 145d remains the same under BS AU 145e. It’s a key and extensive test and replicates 2,275 hours of UV exposure; 2½ times more than some other European number plate test schedules. Dirt - As a subset of the weathering test, plates must be able to resist simulated dirt.

The 2022 is not heavier than the 2021 model according to Tesla Bjørn's test. I see the 2022 model had big mud flaps on the back, they stick out on the side a bit Perhaps spoiling the air flow across the side as you also mention the number plate also does on the front. And then the 2022 model has a different CPU which uses a little bit more power.

2022 also has two reverse/fog lights and bigger indicators 👍

What are the actual weights of each vehicle? More batteries, more weight-except-what about the low voltage battery? If the ‘21 has a lead acid battery for the low voltage it weighs about 3 times again as much as the new, Li-ion battery in the ‘22. And finally, the AMD Ryzen chip in the ‘22, while a better performer, will use more power than the Intel Atom in the ‘21. Reportedly it is enough to make a difference.

Going to guess it's down to the older tires vs newer tires. Older tires are MORE efficient because more rubber has been used and they roll easier.

I think the dead flies on the new car knocked the miles off and the driver was lighter and in the old one and turned he blower and radio off to mess with your head.

You had a truck backing up making the beeping sound in your video. I paused twice to see where the truck was. Hint. Not at my house!...

Are the premium seats more comfortable than the standard black?

@RSEV Год назад

White or black they are the same. It’s only the colour that’s different

@@RSEV thanks Richard, I’m sure I heard someone say on a video that the white ones were softer. Or maybe one of the Tesla salesmen when I went for my test drive.
