Only need 88 MPH to activate the Flux capacitor.

Not here.
In California, grid-tied solar buys electricity from the grid
(when the
site needs it) at retail prices, but sells it back to the grid at
wholesale prices (when generating).

purchasing/consuming power artificially high as well …
real problem here….

Our rate is 5.9 cents per kWh under a special
program for electric car
owners.
Most of my wife’s driving is 70mph or less and
more city driving than
what you probably do. We probably charge 50 miles
per day average and
the car gets about 3.5-4m per kWh.
Our worst rate is about 10.1 cents per kWh on peak
during the week.
Solar doesn’t help us in charging since the care
is gone at 7:30am and
doesn’t get home until after 6:30.

I am getting about 1 mile per percent. I never
trust that display, I
always use battery percentage. But I drive 80 mph
everywhere, freeway.
I am solar powered at my house and other people
pay for the power other
places I charge. So there is no cost of energy
for me.
But if I was paying, it would be about 12 cents
per kWh (it can go as
low as 8 cents depending on how you do it). So
$3.60/charge or 3 cents
per mile. (2.4 cents per mile at the lower tariff)
Hyundai was getting 34 mpg. So 7.4 cents per mile.

So after 2 days with the Leaf and the 30Kw
battery, our estimate is that
it’s actually underrated or they have found other
ways to save power. I
definitely notice more aggressive regen control on
eco mode but we are
seeing 120-125 mile on the display even after
using 5-8% of the
battery. Considering you can drive one for about
$4K a year, almost no
maintenance, and about ¼ of the cost of gas, it’s
got to be one of the
best values out there.

I highly doubt people were just buying the 75 as
they say. Think this
will hurt sales? They already did this to the Model X.
Or are they hoping the Model 3 will fill the gap?

Interesting note from Tesla this morning:
Customers who still want the opportunity to own a
60 kWh Model S will
have until April 16, 2017 to place their order.
Any 60 kWh Model S will
have the ability to upgrade their battery to 75
kWh via an over the air
update.
