Battery/distance estimates always off, as much as 30%

Bug Reports

This happens all the time regards of web/mobile/planning.

Been on countless trips all of the UK, often have to add 30% to the arrival estimate. This is not a cold battery situation, been happening throughout Winter 2025, Spring and through until today.

Take Thursday for example, travelled from Lincolnshire to Llandrindod Wells in Wales. I got to Tesla at Cannock, 'filled' up as instucted, told I would arrive at Evolt In LLandrindd Wells with 6% left, used to not believe any of it I arrived with over 30% left!

This is not an isolated incident, happens every journey the 'arrive with' battery life constantly creeps upwards.

What can I do about this? It was one of the central reasons why I signed up to ABRP in the first place because of the dongle/ABRP solution. Otherwise love it - but this kinda important problem!

Where does this happen?

    I am going to try changing by vehicle from the 50kWh version to the 75kWh version and see what happens. Is there a good way to find out what battery size my van is? I’ve owned since October 2024, but been using ABRP since the beginning of the year. At 100% SoC yesteday the dashboard was showing a range of 176 and the dongle reports 13.5% degradation.

    Thanks for reporting! I checked your vehicle data and it looks good. Could you share a plan here and explain what you actually consumed so we can check the details?
