For reference, a reasonably big alternator on a mid-2000 petrol car is ~2200 W. Alternators are perhaps getting bigger as we stuff more electronics into cars?
That 3600 W for the Model S sounds high if I understand it's just for the brainbox; that alone would consume all your 85 kWh in less than 24h.
