Eventually I was contacted by the bank that the loan is with, Santander. After that, I was able to log in on their website to see the details of the loan.

@voldar , do you know?

Does Tesla publish the battery capacities for its cars or is there a way for me to confirm that in the car's interface? When I got the car I looked and couldn't find it then. When I search online I tend to see 67.6–81 kWh. I have the Model Y [Standard Range] AWD so I'm pretty sure my car's...

@jjrandorin yes I know. I was not referring to the estimations of the trip distance from the navigation. I was referring to the estimate of the miles left from the battery indicator. I even said that I usually show the battery percentage instead of the estimated miles remaining 😁 . For...

I imagine that Tesla does not publish that info though, right?

On a separate note that is only barely related, I remember that when I was researching the car prior to ordering I saw plenty of comments about how the estimated miles left the car reports tends to be overly optimistic by a wide margin. For that reason I usually show the batter percentage...

Thats a good point @Macgruber . I didn't realize the the saved locations were also specific to the driver profile. I'll set that on my wife's profile and see if that makes a difference.

Has this been the case for other people too, i.e. charging at home is not recorded as attributed to the home location unless if you had the navigation running to home before the charging started? I noticed that for the last few days the app says that my car was charged at other locations. My...

So I just learned how to get the charging stats for a single day by long pressing on the chart in the Tesla app. Currently I have my charge schedule set to start at 11pm so the charging may have gone across days, which would mess up the results. I'm going to change the charging schedule to...

@flixden do you know if the charging stats can be filtered or exported? I see the chart but it looks like you have to estimate the numerical value

@MrKashima You might be interested in the insight from some others on an earlier related thread I started on this topic- Are the Average Energy per mile metrics on the trip screen accurate?

Now that I got my wall charger connected in the app I have a little bit more information on this topic. Check here- Comparing cost per mile using total energy from trip screen metrics vs wall charger metrics and compared with ICE.

Yea I'll be paying attention to that when I do take my first road trip. The week that I got the car I tested out supercharging at a stall near my house and it was $0.39/kWh. As I was typing this out I multiplied that rate times the efficiency I mentioned in the original post but then I...

Yup I realized that. If I want to know the true cost of operating the vehicle and getting around town this is still the figure that gives me the more accurate number. I included both so people could see the significant difference.

Yesterday I updated the Tesla app so and connected my wall connector in the app so that I could get a sense on the true energy usage. Then I did a little math to figure out my cost per mile: Miles driven yesterday: 56 mi Approximate electricity cost rate for my last billing cycle (including...

Two weeks ago I took delivery of a Model Y. I financed via Tesla and remember setting up my checking account info for the initial down payment but I don't remember being asked to confirm the payment details for the monthly payments, e.g. what if I wanted the monthly payments to come from a...

@Rocinante777 whatever happened with this? I got a MY 2 weeks ago and I have the same question about how to confirm or adjust loan payment details.

So today I did look at the trip efficiency numbers while I was puttering around (lol) on city streets and I see that before I got on the highway the number was around 320Wh/mi.

Do you mean that any energy used while stopped at a red light is not counted towards that calculation?

For the 25 mile round trip I'm referring to it was mostly highway miles, 20.2 miles of highway traffic to be exact.

Well I asked more because if the trip screen's number of 250 Wh/mi is really an accurate measure of my energy usage for that trip then I might not even have to stop to charge when I go on my trip and still have a maybe 10% left when I get to my destination, assuming I charge to close to 100%...

I'm 5 days into having my 2023 AWD Model Y (est 279 mi range). Thus far I've never driven it more than 40 miles in a single day. I'll be taking a short road trip soon, ≈220 miles, and wanted to get a sense of the range I should expect before stopping to charge. This morning I did a round trip...

I got a MY 4 days ago and when I got in the first thing I noticed was that the screen was very hot, to the point that it was uncomfortable using the screen to go around the menu to adjust my mirrors, setup bluetooth, etc. Granted, the car had been sitting out in the sun at the Tesla facility...

@laservet for me I like the ability to use the apps that can be projected. I'm an Android user and listed to podcasts through Pocket Casts. That app works in AA and its great bc at a read light I can get new podcase episodes, I can go through my podcast playlist (I'll do this if my daughter is...

Is that a setting that can be modified, so that if the phone is in the frunk or trunk the car can still be opened? I know thats a bit of a double-edged sword but I would hate for this to happen to my wife what she is with the kids (every once in a while she forgets her wallet at home and that is...

Nevermind, The showroom called me and said that they were offering a huge additional discounts to clear out stoch and the price on the standard range Grey MY with black interior was goign down to $43,900 so I said hell yea lets do it 😁.

Hey everyone. I'm ready to place am order for MY but my wife and I are having a little trouble picking out the exterior paint and interior material combination that we want. I know you can design the Tesla on the website but we'd get more help from pictures of real MYs out in the sunlight...

Yea thats what I've been expecting for myself. I'm an Android user but I use Apple Music for .... music. As long as I have Premium connectivity that part should work without issue. I'd just have to play the podcasts via BT.

Awesome!. Thanks @UsernamesRHard. Something so does that mean that if you play music from the Apply music App its using the car's data connection? If so, I'm guess that means you need a Premium Connectivity trial/subscription. Do you also need Premium Connectivity in order to have traffic on...

@UsernamesRHard Thanks a lot for those details. That helps alots! This basically means that as long as I can get the media I'm interested in from Spotify or Apple music I should be able to get most of the functionality that I value from using Android Auto. I'll have to transition my podcast...

@CDrury do those solutions work by navigating to a URL in the Tesla's browser?

That's disappointing. Has Tesla ever made any statements about if they would consider adding Android Auto and Carplay support in the future?

Hi all. I'm likely going to order a Model Y within the next week but the biggest question I still have is how to get as much benefit from the Tesla interface as I currently can from Android Auto, or Apple Carplay in my wife's case. From what I can tell the UI has several apps installed on it...

I'm considering getting a Model Y but prior to that I want to have my home charging solution ready to go. The Tesla wall connector would make sense at least for this first electric vehicle but I wouldn't want to lock myself into Tesla's without having to pay for an adapter down the road. So my...

btw @3sr+buyer I tried ABRP and it gave me a route that made a lot more sense than Tesla trip planner.

So does anyone have numbers of how far they can go in the Standard Model Y (279 mile) then? All the reviews and posts I've seem are either from the long range or performance models.

Thanks all. You are referring to sun shades like this- https://www.amazon.com/TAUTO-Tesla-Sunshade-Sunroof-Accessories/dp/B0C1GLZW64?th=1?

No I'm in South Florida, so the humidity tends to keep the heat index high. I have a young child and have another on the way so I'd be anxious about getting a white interior.

Does that stand for A Better Routeplanner? If so is there any way to get ABRP natively on the Tesla display? I'm not sure if Tesla has anything like an app store.

I’ve never had an EV before and I’m trying to get a better sense of realistic expectations for the “standard” 2023 Model Y, the one with an estimated 279 mile range and AWD. I’ve only been in a Model Y once during a short Uber ride. I know that the glass roof is tinted or dyed in a way that...

I’ve never had an EV before and I’m trying to get a better sense of realistic expectations for the “standard” 2023 Model Y, the one with an estimated 279 mile range and AWD. I’ve been searching for real world range figures but most reviews are for the long-range or performance versions of the...
