How many kilometers can the Model 3 Standard version travel?
2 Answers
Model 3 Standard version has an actual tested range of around 380km. The range may be relatively shorter in winter and during high-speed driving. In tests conducted at -10℃ with heating functions turned on, the Standard Plus version achieved a range of 320km in urban areas and 245km on highways. Here are some details about the Model 3: 1. Battery: Tesla uses 21700 batteries with new battery management technology, offering higher energy density, better power efficiency, and more sufficient power. Theoretically, Tesla batteries experience only a 5% degradation after traveling 480,000km, significantly enhancing their lifespan. 2. Design: The Model 3 does not use an aluminum body, so the body size is reduced by 20% to offset the impact of increased weight on the range. The expected range of the Model 3 is around 320km. The impractical falcon-wing doors are removed, and the 3-second acceleration from 0 to 60mph may be eliminated, along with the possible removal of the autopilot feature.
As an owner of a Model 3 Standard Range for over a year, I find its range quite reliable. Whether driving in the city or on highways, a full charge gives me around 430 kilometers. If I use the energy-saving mode or avoid aggressive acceleration, it can go even further. In hot summer weather, the range drops slightly, and it's more noticeable in cold winters due to the power consumption of air conditioning and heating. However, for my daily commute, charging once a week is sufficient. Charging stations are now widely available, and a fast charge can add 200 kilometers in just half an hour. Overall, the range is more than enough for daily commuting, and even long trips aren't too worrisome. The key point is that electricity costs are much cheaper than gasoline.
