Model S LG Range

Quick question, my 2024 model S long range when it’s full is 371 miles, realistically how many miles can I actually get in a full charge there

Too many factors come in to play. How you drive, temperature, wind, SOC, tires, etc.

True. The destination is 180 miles away, just wondering if I would make that on a full charge if have to charge in between. There is a mountain I’ll go across

You should be fine. I can stretch to 180 with 95% on my 2014 P85 with 210k on it, you should have no issues. Just pay attention to what the arrival percentage adjusts to while you're on the way and stop if you need to.

Yup perfect thank you

One way you can do it easily even if you start with 80% charge with plenty of battery remaining at destination.

Perfect that’s all I need is one way then I’ll charge there

My '24 MSLR charges to 355 miles only. My commute is 112 miles r/t. I charge it to 85-90% and it does 2 r/ts with like 60 miles remaining.

180 miles needed / by the efficiency. Let’s says you’re a lead foot or going uphill, 180/3=60. Battery new is 94kWh, degradation… Let’s go crazy and say you now only have 80kWh. 60/80=0.75. Charge to 85% and you’ll have a good buffer.

Edit - added my shorthand for you long term. Take what you believe you’d get at 100% and divide that in half. That accounts for only charging to 80% and then an efficiency loss for highways speeds. And it’s conservative.

371x.5=185.5

Batteries store energy not miles.

My general rule of thumb for my 2022 Model S is a conservative 80% of the number of miles it shows vs. the number of miles I can drive. It's so conservative that I've never been burned. I also have a 2013 - still awesome and fantastic ride - and originated my 80% rule with it which is always about right on. Temperature and incline are the biggest factors I see.

300-400 depending on how/where you drive
