How many kilometers can a Tesla's battery last?
2 Answers
Tesla's battery can last for 1.6 million kilometers. Tesla is an American electric vehicle and energy company, primarily engaged in the production and sales of electric vehicles, solar panels, and energy storage equipment. The founder named the company "Tesla" in honor of the physicist Nikola Tesla. Tesla's vehicle lineup includes the Model 3, Model Y, Model S, Model 3 (import), and Model X. Taking the Model 3 as an example: this car has a length, width, and height of 4694mm, 1850mm, and 1443mm respectively, with a wheelbase of 2875mm. The body type is a 4-door, 5-seater sedan, and it is equipped with a single-speed electric transmission.
Last time I drove my friend's Model Y Long Range on a long trip, the display showed a full charge of 660 km, but in reality, with the AC and music on while driving on the highway, it lasted about 580 km. I've tried different routes, and in winter when the temperature drops below zero, the range drops by 20%, and in summer, using the AC consumes about 10% more power. However, if you have a home charging station, a daily commute of 200 km is no problem at all. Tesla's energy recovery system really saves power, and it even recharges the battery when going downhill. Over the long term, the battery capacity will degrade, with a typical reduction of 5-8% after three years, but the battery warranty is quite long.
