Tesla consumed 5689 kWh till date (screenshot below). Simple math translates to $570 spent in electricity. For comparison, I would have spent $5000 in gas for my BMW for same amount of miles.

Yesterday, my “Red Rocket” which is none other than Rosso Diablo….completed 20,000 miles (32,000kms) in 21-months of ownership.
It’s been an absolute pleasure to own this fast performance EV sedan.
Here is a quick update on how life with it till date :
- Fast like hell….there isn’t a car on road that can accelerate like this beast.
- Handles like a supercar. Tight and precise.
- Zero issues till date (Touchwood)
- Tires are still OEM and even though it’s on its last legs,I am trying to pull it through the summer. It will be replaced in a few months.
- Zero punctures till date (Touchwood)
- Tesla consumed 5689 kWh till date (screenshot below). Simple math (5698 * $0.10/kwh) translates to $570 spent in electricity. For comparison, I would have spent $5000 in gas for my BMW for same amount of miles. This is ridiculous amount of savings.
- Tesla keeps getting improvements every few weeks so that’s a major plus.
- Zero rattles anywhere from the car (Touchwood)
Downside : Due to the aging summer performance tires, cabin noise is little higher compared to when it was brand new. I hope it will become better after I change the tires.
20,000 miles crossed. Yay !!
Got her a nice wash for this achievement. Still gleams like Day 1, turns lot of eyes on the road, too.
