Hello EV experts, I recently rented a 2019 Tesla model 3 standard plus with about 45k miles in Honolulu. I have 2 questions about its performance. 1. I thought it should have enough range to travel around the island a couple days without recharging but instead had to recharge each day. The first day recharged from 9% to 80% took 32kW. Why so little range? 2. Using the superchargers at Aiea, the stalls are shared. The first day the top recharge speed was about 75kW but mostly closed to 50-55kW with the pack preconditioned. Why so slow? Is something wrong with this Tesla? Also it’s unnerving driving with only the percent gauge for range, no odometer visible during driving or charging (info probably blocked by the media stream from my daughter’s iPhone). Too use to seeing miles and proper charge summaries on thre dash in my 250mpc Kia Niro of the same age. And expected much more when driving around an island with under 100 miles up and back. What gives?
Thanks, Ed _______________________________________________ Address messages to ev@lists.evdl.org No other addresses in TO and CC fields HELP: http://www.evdl.org/help/
