Thankyou very useful.

[Elzo Stubbe]

my pleasure

[Joshua Rosen]

Good job.

Just a reminder that this sheet (i’m the original author) is based on estimated values for many details and does not account for auxiliary power usage (infotainment, heating etc). Frontal area, rolling resistance, battery size, powertrain efficiency and weight are all unofficial estimates.

Europe might need substantial changes to narrow (comply with regional rules) for European roads which could end up being a very different vehicle (ie less battery, worse aerodynamics, narrower, no center console)

I know and am fully aware, thank you and respect. I see it just as a fun range calculator for the different battery packs at certain speeds in kilometers in stead of miles..

Thank you very much Curtis for giving us this “template” to play with…

Thanks for the reminder. How much of an effect do you think an infotainment system would have on range, say, also with the enhanced audio system?

[Elzo Stubbe]

Hard music is one mile less. Soft music lasts forever….hahaha

Safetypilot, infotainment, heating/cooling and other systems all use power. The following is another fun calculator was linked on the facebook group and its minimum value is 0.5 kw (500 watts); it also assumes a 0.007 rolling resistance which I suspect is wrong. This seems extreme power draw in neutral temperatures since the screen, arm based SOC and any sensors/modules should still be under 150w.
