Model Y w/4680 cells. Only 71 miles.
It seems the 4680 Tesla packs are the slowest/worst charging batteries they sell in any of their vehicles. .
Uncertain.Wonder if bigger cylindrical batteries are harder to cool due to less relative surface area. The side area to volume ratio % is 8.7 to 22.2. This probably needs to be balanced with smaller cells probably being heavier.

Pouches are best for cooling. This is why cars like the EV6 GT are so thermally effective and heat doesn't stunt our range really. In 100*f temps, I lose maybe 5% or so on a full charge vs 70*f weather, for example (keeping the cabin at 68*f).Uncertain.
The tab-less 4680 generates no Ohmic heat and combined with partial ribbon cooling should run cooler than the the tab designs.
