AutoExec Summary
The Tesla Model 3 and Model Y may not produce as much power as Tesla claims. The power and torque outputs of these electric vehicles are not quoted in Tesla’s marketing material, but instead, the company relies on metrics such as 0-100km/h times to showcase their speed. By examining data from Chinese owner’s manuals and Australian certification documentation, it was found that the actual power outputs of the Model 3 and Model Y are lower than what Tesla claims. Additionally, the performance of the vehicles is also influenced by factors such as battery performance and different motor codes.
