That's CRAZY efficient, took delivery of a new MYP on Aug 25th and took a 2K road trip and I averaged 294 wh/mi. I have since dumped the 21" Uberturbines for some TSportLine 18s with 245/50 Michelin Pilot Sport A/S tires. They are still breaking in but I can tell I'm getting some of the efficiency back. Great test as usual. Thanks for all you do for the EV community.
I don’t normally comment until after I watch the video but a couple things stand out right away. 1. The Tesla model S is still one of the best looking cars on the road. 2. Call the electrician so Alyssa doesn’t have to charge the Rivian at a fast charger.
I assume they'll have charging options at the new office/storage place. Not sure if she'll be working there but that would be perfect to charge there for a few hours. If not, then yes, they need more options at the house.
I need a set of 19s for road trips; it seems more practical and probably more comfortable with a taller sidewall. I've only made a few trips in my Model S Plaid, but I have the 21" wheel package, and I felt like the range was probably nowhere near the advertised EPA range. I will admit that driving at 70 MPH on most highways will get many people tailing you, almost crashing into you, etc. I was closer to 80MPH on both my road trips, and I know that impacts the range. Great video!
So far I have had no range problems going up and down the east coast for travel and business in my Tesla model S plaid overall I can go about 350 miles total I opted for the 21 inch wheels with a white exterior and a white interior.
Just took delivery of my 2022 Tesla Model Y LR with the 20” wheels and I am getting an estimated range of 330 miles at 93% according to the car. I was extremely surprised by that.
So rated, to get the 396 is about 245 wh / mile. I suspect if you'd done this test in warmer temps, like mid 70s and on medium instead of low, you'd see even better results. You might think the lowest suspension setting will get you the best range, but the change in total toe can more than wipe out the slight gain in reduced drag. My MXP get's a few percent better in "low" vs "very low" (slightly different labels than MSP). Testing out the new energy graph last night, I took it easy in my MXP for the 124 mile commute home. The energy graph says I paid a total 0.8% penalty for increased elevation. My X Plaid (with 20" wheels) got 268 wh / mile. The outside temp was mid 70s and I averaged 65 rather than 70. So under those conditions, I think you'd hit 245 wh / mile in your S Plaid.
EPA rated you might get at cruising speed closer to 60-65 mph. Bjorn Nyland gets WLTP-like numbers with 90 kph (56? mph) cruising. Usually still too fast to match WLTP even in lovely summer weather. Super click aero cars can go a bit quicker on a cruise to match rated.

HI Out of Spec, thanks for all the content. I'm wondering what you've found to be the most efficient tires currently available for the Model S. Are these the ones? Can't tell whether these were all-season or not, but the 285 seems to be scarce/not exist.
Thank you 👌🐽 and you know what you are breaking traffic rules by not stopping at a stop sign. Traffic rules require a complete stop at a STOP sign in any situation, whether it is a busy intersection or not. Thank you.🤩
Great and impressive test, 265Wh/mi at 70mph?! That's about as good as my Model 3 RWD! Kudos to range-psychic Alyssa, hah, just ask next time to save some hours!

@@bob15479 Looks like you guys are misunderstanding, the Tesla is running significantly wider tires at the rear compared to the Lucid so that's impressive for Tesla not Lucid.

Assuming Alyssa is Kyle’s partner, he probably got the couch that night. A Scottish dinner was available at the charging spot. Hopefully, they chose dining more upscale while in a $140K car.
Edit: 3kw past hitting zero. Nice -TLDW- -Did you run it to "turtle mode" like the EPA does or just to zero %?- This is important and also why fools like Edmunds keep claiming that Teslas don't hit their rated ranges despite matching their rated efficiencies in their tests. If another car (say Audi Etron) stops 100 yards after zero you just can't rely as much on those bottom percent as you can in a car where you know there is a buffer and can tell how much from the power limit.
I recently purchased a CCS (EVBase) adapter for my Model Y 2022 Long range. I tested charging on EVgo 350kw. The initial battery level was about 52%. I didn't precondition the battery and charging started at 75kw. My adapter brand is EVBase. Do you know, if it is a good adapter? Not sure if I should buy a Tesla OEM CCS adapter or EVbase provide the same quality/speed of charging? Thanks!
Kyle, how much greater range do you think the non-Plaid with stock 19” wheels achieves on this 70mph test? It’s a lighter vehicle with one less motor and rear tires possibly smaller. The rear tires are 10” wide vs front at 9”. I’m guessing 30-35 miles more.
Same wheel and tire options between the LR and Plaid. The extra range would come pretty much exclusively from the weight savings. Maybe you get another 10-15 miles. Unlikely to get more than that.
@@jpscharged I just double checked. Wheel options are the same between LR and Plaid. Tires are summer tires on the Plaid but dimensions are the same. I’ve never heard anything about the LR having a larger battery. Pretty sure that’s incorrect.
you said model s is significantly louder than lucid air, is bmw iX the more silent of all these cars? what about suspension comfort between all these cars?
365 is awesome but ranks below the 395 that your channel ranked with the EQS 450+. Of course the EQS is rear wheel drive only. No one is in the same category as the Lucid AT.
My plaid S is getting 200 miles driving locally with 19” tempest wheels so I’m sure freeway might be better this time around. Thought it gets better range locally but that’s not the case. 😢
Awesome test, kinda like I knew it would be. Thank you for this! If we r to do a direct comparison with a Lucid, u would have to get ur hands on a regular Model S with 19". I'd lend u mine but I live way too far away from CO. Or maybe get a Lucid AGT Performance which we can then compare to this result for the Plaid. I have a strong suspicion that the range difference between both cars would be negligible.
Out of spec reviews. I have a request. Is it possible to do realistic range tests at 80 mph? Maybe do one at 70 for Max possible take and do a realistic test at 80?
When he bought the car it had 19" wheels. Then he put on Martian 20" wheels, but there's no option in the Tesla menu to set 20" wheels. It's either 19" or 21" choices.
Something strange I experienced, could be a bug. ?? Great video and watch all the way through. Question? Put my climate on 61 degrees F on auto model X and 70 - 75 mph. My efficiency was almost 40 to 50 watt hour per mile less. Even on very low suspension before it was 10 whr/mile difference. Have you tested your Tesla at temperature settings 61 -62 degrees F to confirm that is a higher (maybe lower) consumption ? I hope it is not too much trouble.
@@chengcao418 in the model 3 seemed colder at even 70 degrees. But the model X 2016, 61 degree is cold but not uncomfortable . I wonder if anybody else experienced a change in efficiency the past month.
@@MrAdopado thank you so sorry for the mistake. I edited the mistake I meant watt hour per mile. I haven’t tested much lately but my daily commute consumption has improved. I want to test it with a trailer but the same one I tested the past. (?) I am more curious if the new can achieve longer range base on same conditions.
The top pros verify the car's indicated trip meter on a known stretch to come to a trip over/under %. This usually needs to be taken in/out of indicated consumption as this is calculated based on INDICATED distance, which is not real distance. I think most cars just count whele revolution and use a GUESSED circumference. For SOME reason, they don't cross-reference GPS in the background to come to a proper number on the dash. I don't know why they can't pretend to care about numbers they present. But Tesla is the greatest offender when it comes to quoting anything that can be exprssed through a number...
Model s plaid 19 inch 255 front, 285 rear, efficiency is 3.80 at 70 mph (365 miles 96kwh, 92.5% of epa) vs lucid air gt 19 inch front 245, rear 265, efficiency is 3.88 at 70 mph(735 miles 112kwh, 84.3% of epa). It is impressive tesla. It will improve by 2-3% by using like lucid low profile tyres. And make a google spread sheet to show us all the test result
I was an early adopter and there were almost no chargers. I was at 12 miles remaining range and 4 miles from the. Harper when it scrolled to zero and died. 😢2013
In fact, a bit better since the EQS has a bigger battery. Furtheremore, the 580 is not the "performance" model. The AMG version of the EQS hasnt undergone real world testing but I dont think it will do this well despite the bigger battery.
One thing that Tesla has really figured out is efficiency. Almost. 4 mi/kWh at 70mph with 3 PM motors and 255/285mm tire combination is crazy. More impressed by the efficiency than the range since the efficiency is way more important than the size of the battery. Now if they could just figure out the car things like proper noise insulation and suspension design.
Stfu!!!!! They also uses a lot of rare earths in their motors! Other manufacturers like bmw, Mercedes’, vw uses electric motors with no rare earths/elements at all. That’s what I call sustainability
You better not drive your Tesla near to saltwater areas, because Saltwater could create corrosive damage to the battery packs and star on fire eventually. Obviously that cost a fully replacement, you know the prices.
I would have shut the AC and extracted a little more range. Ideally you should load your car with weight of 4 persons. The results in PNW would be different due to hilly nature.
Track Mode on Model 3 Starts to cool down everything, because when tracking, getting heat is much less an issue than getting rid of it. What you can do instead is to precondition the car before starting the drive, that way the pack is at least at a decent temperature - not ideal, but not terrible either.
At the end of each range video you should put in a chart showing how this car compares to other cars you’ve tested. With rankings
Like Bjorn does. I appreciate him putting it up at the end so instead of having to watch the full 20-30 minute video every time you can just watch the last 5 minutes or so where he shows exactly how much range it got, how cold it was, and how other cars performed in the same weather

I want to test it with a trailer but the same one I tested the past. (?) I am more curious if the new can achieve longer range base on same conditions.
@@chengcao418 family seem ok on the long trip.
Very impressie result indeed! Thanks for the video.
Can you recommend some apps which make EV ownership "easier" ? For people like me looking for first EV. Thanks
Given that the tesla has a heat pump it may even outrange a lucid if it is slightly chilly out
Does the circumference of the tire affect the mile traveled? Where does Tesla's speedometer get its information from?
The top pros verify the car's indicated trip meter on a known stretch to come to a trip over/under %.
This usually needs to be taken in/out of indicated consumption as this is calculated based on INDICATED distance, which is not real distance.
I think most cars just count whele revolution and use a GUESSED circumference. For SOME reason, they don't cross-reference GPS in the background to come to a proper number on the dash. I don't know why they can't pretend to care about numbers they present. But Tesla is the greatest offender when it comes to quoting anything that can be exprssed through a number...
Model s plaid 19 inch 255 front, 285 rear, efficiency is 3.80 at 70 mph (365 miles 96kwh, 92.5% of epa) vs lucid air gt 19 inch front 245, rear 265, efficiency is 3.88 at 70 mph(735 miles 112kwh, 84.3% of epa). It is impressive tesla. It will improve by 2-3% by using like lucid low profile tyres. And make a google spread sheet to show us all the test result
You didn't explain why you CCS charged instead of supercharged.
24:44 this part made me laugh lmao
You need to have Alyssa go buy some lottery tickets. LoL! Great video!
Would love to see what it does on the Martin wheels.
Krazy Kyle or King EV Kyle. I like both. 😂

Indeed superb efficiency.
Does it have as good a ride as a EV6.....
got 3.5 miles out of my Tesla model s 2021 340 miles ( above 70 mph) phoenix to Las Vegas nev)
Two of you in the car and yet the driver is the one who needs to hold the phone to video.
Have you ever done model y ?
Couples that charge together stay together. ;D
What is the benefit of ccs charging vs supercharging? Got my raffle ticket.
I was an early adopter and there were almost no chargers. I was at 12 miles remaining range and 4 miles from the. Harper when it scrolled to zero and died. 😢2013
Excellent demonstration. Just subscribed. Great job..............
Is there a list of all the cars that you range tested???
I dont like the stearing handle ....
Steering inhibition device.
Yeah steering wheel is something to get used to.
@@Demy26 Pretty sure that's not a wheel.
What is average speed?
Not bad almost hit the 395 miles Tom made in the EQS.
In fact, a bit better since the EQS has a bigger battery. Furtheremore, the 580 is not the "performance" model. The AMG version of the EQS hasnt undergone real world testing but I dont think it will do this well despite the bigger battery.
Nice work, thank you
One thing that Tesla has really figured out is efficiency. Almost. 4 mi/kWh at 70mph with 3 PM motors and 255/285mm tire combination is crazy. More impressed by the efficiency than the range since the efficiency is way more important than the size of the battery.
Now if they could just figure out the car things like proper noise insulation and suspension design.
Stfu!!!!! They also uses a lot of rare earths in their motors! Other manufacturers like bmw, Mercedes’, vw uses electric motors with no rare earths/elements at all. That’s what I call sustainability
Love that car - coming soon to Denmark
How affect installing signature forged wheels? And who cares lucid
You better not drive your Tesla near to saltwater areas, because Saltwater could create corrosive damage to the battery packs and star on fire eventually. Obviously that cost a fully replacement, you know the prices.
I would have shut the AC and extracted a little more range. Ideally you should load your car with weight of 4 persons. The results in PNW would be different due to hilly nature.
How does it feel driving with a rectangle?
The Model S is a beauty. It's ICE Pickup trucks that look like giant square blocks.
awesome range, but still a long way to go to reach ice range :(
Diesel is about 3 times that range 😅😅😅😅 someone recently did a trip from the UK to Italy or somewhere south Europe one tank over 900 miles
Tesla Tech just slapping BMW and BMW lover still can't accept the fact LOL I really want BMW i4M50 but the Tech just sucks so bad :(
Deff agree about half a steering wheel, other than the lack of obstruction to screen it seems ppl like'em just for the novelty which will wear off.
Love Tesla’s, but they’re like fish bowls right out of the factory. Kyle, throw some tint on her!! If not that’s fine as well, just a suggestion 🙂
I wonder if turning on drag strip mode would be a decent way to precondition
Track Mode on Model 3 Starts to cool down everything, because when tracking, getting heat is much less an issue than getting rid of it. What you can do instead is to precondition the car before starting the drive, that way the pack is at least at a decent temperature - not ideal, but not terrible either.
