Tesla Car Battery Model?

Tesla car's battery model is NCR18650, 3100mAh. Tesla Model X is an SUV model developed by Tesla. Tesla Model X uses ternary lithium batteries and lithium iron phosphate batteries. Tesla's first car product was the Roadster, released in 2008. This is a coupe. The second car product was the Model S, released in 2012. This is a four-door pure electric luxury coupe. The third car product is the Model X, a luxury pure electric SUV. The best battery types for electric vehicles are ternary lithium batteries, fuel cells, and solid-state batteries. Ternary lithium batteries stand out among many power batteries and become mainstream, closely related to their two major advantages. High energy density can bring good durability to electric vehicles. Secondly, the lifespan, output power, and cost control of ternary lithium batteries can achieve a certain balance, which is conducive to the popularization of commercialization. Leading companies in the power industry such as Tesla, BYD, and BAIC New Energy mostly use ternary lithium batteries in their products. The advantages of fuel cells are obvious. In principle, there is no difference between solid-state batteries and ternary lithium batteries, except that the liquid electrolyte is replaced by a solid one. The obvious advantage is that solid-state batteries have better energy density and stability than lithium-ion batteries.
I've been driving a Tesla Model 3 for nearly three years. This car uses 21700 cylindrical lithium batteries, mainly supplied by companies like Panasonic. These battery cells have larger dimensions and higher energy density, allowing my range to easily exceed 300 kilometers. When charging, I prefer using superchargers - they can charge up to 80% in just twenty minutes. But it's important to avoid frequent deep discharges; maintaining the battery between 20%-80% helps prolong its lifespan. I've also studied the older Model S's 18650 batteries, which had slightly smaller capacity, but newer models have all upgraded to 21700 or even the newer 4680 cells. Overall, Tesla's battery design is very smart, requiring minimal maintenance. While winter range decreases slightly, preheating helps. Regular software updates further optimize performance - truly impressive!
