EV Channels Review

Greg conducted a real-world range test on a used 2023 Tesla Model 3 Standard Range LFP, with approximately 60,000 km on the odometer. The test was performed in cold (0°C) and windy conditions, with the vehicle equipped with winter tires. The initial indicated range at 100% charge was 412 km, significantly lower than its new rating of 438 km. The vehicle achieved a total of 299 km before reaching 0% state of charge, with the return leg being more efficient due to a tailwind. The reviewer noted that winter tires likely impacted efficiency by around 10%. Despite the suboptimal conditions and the car's rental history, Greg expressed satisfaction with the results, deeming the 300 km range solid for the circumstances. He concluded that a used Model 3, even a rental, could be a good value, though he personally would opt for the Long Range Dual Motor version for its performance and larger battery. He also highlighted that cold weather and wind significantly affect EV range, a factor that also impacts gasoline cars, albeit to a lesser extent.
