Tesla Model Y Road Trip with 4 Humans

[@Gjeebs]

Does anyone know the answer to the question at 21:17 ?

[@timj9350]

TFL did a test on their Tesla and if I remember correctly it did take hills into consideration. But that was a year or so ago that they made that video so don’t remember exactly.

[@AvatarKava]

I believe they added both elevation change and ambient temperature estimates to the trip computer's calculations in 2019.

[@Gjeebs]

Wow that’s awesome. Thank you

[@AvatarKava]

​@@Gjeebs one pretty easy way to see this is on the energy graph by picking the 'trip' option on the top - you'll see the slope of the line change based on those factors

[@oisiaa]

Yes, it takes elevation into account. Look at your trip energy graph, you can see it go up/down based on the elevation profile of your route.

[@bdtang]

The nav does take into account the elevation change when calculating the amount of charge remaining. If you look at the energy/trip tab you can see segments where it expects to regain some range due to regen going downhill (it’s not just a straight line slope). It’ll also show you how much you’ve deviated from the expected energy output over your trip.

Highly recommend the Under Canvas in Moab as well. Absolutely correct that photos and videos don’t do these locations justice. They’re sights you have to experience in person to be able to fully appreciate.

[@UngerSU2008]

When you are doing these longer road trips, it would be nice to see a summary of total distance traveled, how long you drove until you needed to stop to charge, how long your stop was to charge, etc. If others are like me and thinking of getting a Tesla it would be nice to see what these differences are compared to a gas car. Most gas cars will need to stop around 250 miles in (maybe more) and getting gas takes about 15 mins so comparing these would be good to see.

[@jlarm3]

It's obvious to me that you are a younger person. At my age (76) I must stop at least once an hour to hit a restroom. I wish I could go 250 miles without stopping.

[@Dawsomesauce]

I typically go 325 ish miles before stopping for gas if my kids are asleep. If they're awake i try and stop every hour and a half.

[@jeremmorris]

Mesa native, drove my 3 week old Model Y to the grand canyon over the weekend. Good videos, keep it up.

[@Gjeebs]

Nice man! That’s a fun trip in the Y. Convenient super charger locations

[@cgamiga]

@@Gjeebs Yup, the Grand Canyon supercharger (Tusayan) is a HUGE help... before that, if you didn't use destination chargers there and at park,... you could run out of charge and not make it back to Flagstaff. Now, easy peasy!

[@Geckogold]

Another fun road trip video, and I love seeing different parts of the US. Hope to see more of these! And what you saw with your miles display is why I prefer using the battery percentage display instead. It's less hectic and you can still see a more accurate measure of your remaining miles when you look at the energy screen that shows the usage for the last 5, 15, and 30 miles. And on the trip tab, you can see how much energy it expects to use based on your speed, outside temperature and elevation changes. This bar will drop or raise depending on your speed, so if you go faster, it drops down. But if you go slower, it'll raise up.

I started with one of your later videos, and now the KZbin algorithm understands that I like it since I'm pretty much watching every minute. So I'm here for the long run now and going through your video graveyard. Great content!

[@cgamiga]

Let the navigation/trip planner tell you what charge%/miles you will arrive with, it takes elevation etc into account. The "battery bar %/miles" display is based on "default/EPA" driving like 250Wh/mi, not the 300-400 you used uphill w/ load :) Just set display to %, and plan to arrive 10-20% at next supercharger..

It does count the elevation and incline and decline of the road. There’s actually a graph for it in the car. I watch another channel who does a lot of road trips. The percentage is more accurate then the miles

[@JAson-wl1zf]

Just had a 300 mile road trip on a MY. Added an hour+ to my trip, had to charge midway and when we got there, and used about the same amount of money if i would’ve just used my gas car.

[@idahorx1]

That....would annoy me. 300 miles, 4 hour trip in the west. To have to stop and charge to me would be frustrating. Trying to do a 1000 mile day must be really painful.

[@JAson-wl1zf]

@@idahorx1 Yeah, experience was terrible. Not sure why its not mentioned anywhere on how bad it is. Going to take it to get serviced and hopefully there’s something actually wrong with it.

[@Dawsomesauce]

@@JAson-wl1zf why did it take so long to charge? Did you ever get it looked at?

[@JAson-wl1zf]

@@Dawsomesauce charging takes about 30mins and the charging station was about 10-15mins out the way to get to. It probably added more than an hour to the trip since I had to charge mid trip and when I actually got there also. After owning the MY for some time it seems you cant pass 70mph to get the most out of your battery, but who goes the minimum on the highway?

[@JAson-wl1zf]

@@Dawsomesauce I did get it looked at and they said nothing was wrong. They also mentioned the reason the battery was draining so fast is bc you have to drive a certain way to get the most out of your battery (under 70mph). Its great as a local daily driver but not so much on trips imo.

Yes the range estimate takes into account elevation. And all glass has UVB protection (and some UVA), tinted or not.

[@HollerAtcherBoi]

This might seem petty but I have to ask. So, I test drove a model Y and was shocked at the lack of visibility through the rear windshield. The Tesla only has a slit to look through. It’s almost non existent. I’m used to a huge rear windshield. Now, I realize that the Model Y has a camera, but I don’t like that I’d have to push a button and look at the screen in order to scan behind me, rather than a quick glance in my rear view mirror. Feels unsafe. What do you think about this?

[@Dawsomesauce]

It's an adjustment for sure. I was going to buy the camero when they refreshed it when it graduated highschool but said hell now once I drove it and saw the lack of visibility in the rear windshield. At least the Tesla has the cameras like you mentioned. You can turn them on at anytime if that helps sway you at all

[@unklefunkle24]

Gjeebs, the TESLA does calculate energy usage based on elevation. I saw this somewhere in either the mobile app and/or on-screen in my own TESLA. (Can’t remember where-sorry. I’m a new TESLA owner.) I also watched a video of a couple dudes who did a video about them towing with a Model X, and they showed a TESLA graph that accounted for their elevation, etc.

[@batandball617]

Uphill, loaded car, head winds, crosswinds and higher speeds all eat into the range.....

[@cgamiga]

Yes, it takes elevation into consideration, possibly some temps.. but initial calc is more typical driving, not your exact driving style/speed & weather conditions (headwind, rain, maybe temps.. and extra weight).... the nav system will update arrival battery estimate as you go, but the best thing to do is use the "Energy" app , Trip tab when navigating... it shows the Projected as well as Actual charge curves, so you can see if you are doing better or worse than initial estimate, and maybe adjust your driving (speed) or charging plans in case... before it gives you warnings like "stay under 70mph to arrive" etc. This curve is VERY accurate. Trust it, and the overall nav warnings! (and, sometimes best to set your destination to next supercharger, so you know you will arrive w/ enough! Plus, then it pre-conditions battery.) Also, you can pre-plan trips w/ special circumstances (weather extremes, more load, as well as multiple stops) with ABetterRoutePlanner app/website (works on Tesla screen browser!) It can connect live to your car, and update its projections as well, and is also very accurate (if a bit more conservative) abetterrouteplanner.com/

Super cool to see a Starship (url: starship.xyz) robot roaming around in the US. The company and tech are from Estonia, a tiny country in North-East Europe. You can see them driving around Tallinn the capital quite often, crossing the street at the zebra walk like regular pedestrians. 😊 I highly doubt they’ll be taking the jobs from delivery guys as the range and speed are limited - most likely will compliment the delivery chain (restaurant->delivery guy->robot->customer).
