Whether you're on a road trip or just trying to get the most out of your daily commute, here are some tips to help maximize the range of your Tesla and optimize battery performance.
Preconditioning your battery before driving, especially in colder weather, can help improve range. Tesla vehicles allow you to precondition the battery using the Tesla app to ensure it's at an optimal temperature before you start driving.
Driving at moderate speeds and avoiding rapid acceleration can help you conserve energy and extend your range. Tesla vehicles are efficient at lower speeds, so try to maintain a steady pace for better efficiency.
Take advantage of Tesla’s regenerative braking system to recover energy when decelerating. This feature helps to recharge your battery slightly when slowing down, extending your range over time.
Roof racks, large wheels, or open windows can create drag and decrease range. For long trips, minimize these factors to improve efficiency. Using Tesla’s aero wheels can also help improve range.
Using climate control, especially heating, can reduce your Tesla’s range. Consider using seat heaters instead of cabin heating to stay warm without draining the battery. Limiting air conditioning can also improve range.
Use Tesla’s Trip Planner to find Supercharger locations along your route and plan charging stops efficiently. Charging at Superchargers helps minimize downtime and ensures you're always within range.
