According to Sawyer Merritt, the new Tesla Model 3 Standard exceeded its EPA range rating in Edmunds' real-world test, achieving 339 miles compared to its official 321-mile EPA rating—a 5.6% improvement (source: @SawyerMerritt on Twitter). This performance is attributed to Tesla’s integration of AI-powered energy management and advanced predictive algorithms that optimize battery usage and vehicle handling. For the AI industry, this result highlights growing opportunities in automotive AI, particularly in real-world data analytics, energy optimization, and smart mobility solutions. Automakers and tech companies can capitalize on this trend by developing and licensing AI-driven vehicle management systems, enhancing electric vehicle performance and consumer appeal.
