How Long Does a Tesla Battery Last?
1 Answers
Tesla batteries generally have a lifespan of 8 years. Regarding battery longevity, Tesla specifically provides a quality guarantee for its vehicles. All Tesla models come with battery packs that have a service life of up to 8 years, including the vehicle's powertrain. Below are detailed introductions about the battery: 1. Tesla has launched many vehicle models, including sedans and SUVs. Taking the Model S as an example, this car uses NCR18650 batteries, with nearly 7,000 lithium-ion cells. These 7,000 cells are grouped twice, combining series and parallel connections. The performance of NCR18650 batteries is very high, and using this type of battery allows Tesla vehicles to deliver superior performance. 2. Since Tesla produces pure electric vehicles, all battery packs are placed on the vehicle's chassis. To prevent damage from impacts during driving, Tesla's designers have reinforced the areas around the battery packs with steel bars and frames during the vehicle's design phase. 3. The battery pack has a capacity of 85kWh, storing enough electricity to power an average household for one month.
