As a soon to be owner of a P85D, when I heard the announcement for the P85D and read the initial anticipated range from Tesla. I thought that the P85D was the perfect car, all the performance one could ever want with even more range for long distance highway travel. Since the EPA results with the combined driving, the true efficiency of the dual motor for highway travel is one of the things that I have become concerned about. The EPA numbers seem contradictory with lower combined mileage, but still better MPGe on the highway than the single motor P85, but still with the rated 245 range. So now that owners are beginning to receive their cars (hopefully me next week.). I would like to propose a thread where we can list our highway miles and what kind of efficiency we really got. By doing this in aggregate, collecting all of our data we will have a lot more useful information quicker than we could if we each tracked our own individual performance. I would ask that you list highway trip data and include temp, if it was raining, snow, if you have 19 or 21" wheels, performance or snow tires, etc... and any other suggested factors people can recommend. I hope the numbers are closer to Tesla's than the EPA's.
Thanks
