aerodynamics mostly, motor efficiency partly

• api 3y ago
  The aerodynamics checks out from my experience. I have one and when you drive it below highway speeds it seems to have great range. Would not surprise me if you got real close to model 3 range at 40mph. On the highway at high speeds the range is slightly worse than its advertised range at more like 210 miles vs advertised 230. I was just curious since I always assumed the model 3 had a bigger battery but hadn’t checked. It’s good enough for my uses and I still prefer it to a gas car for multiple reasons including zero latency acceleration.
