Battery Tesla or OEM Volvo
Just got the notification on my 2019 m3p. Scheduled an appointment for Tuesday. 6 years and 1 month of ownership 77k miles in Ohio. Pretty good longevity if you ask me!
Pros: pretty good longevity
Mileage: 123919 km
The batteries easily last 300k miles even if they're not well taken care of.
Pros: long lifespan, durable
Mileage: 482802 km
I\u2019m glad I have a Tesla with a 16v LV lithium Ion battery. Should last the life of the car like the HV battery.
Pros: 16v lithium Ion battery
If I could easily repurpose the cells in my 140k mile Model 3 into home storage for my solar I would rather do that than sell the car. 3% degradation the car itself needed more work than a replacement battery ever would have cost.
Pros: minor battery degradation
Cons: car needed more work
Mileage: 140000 km
I\u2019ve owned an S60 T8 for 2 and a half years now. Like others have said Volvo PHEVs deplete the battery first by default before touching the gas engine.
Pros: deplete battery first
Vehicle:
Volvo S60
I have been driving a 2023 S60 Recharge for 2 years now. If someone told you it's bad to drive them with the battery depleted, they lied to you.
Pros: rear wheels always powered
Vehicle:
Volvo S60
Only things that went a couple months back was the EGR and a window mechanism. And the battery a year before.
Cons: battery replacement
Vehicle:
Volvo V40
Mileage: 200000 km
2020 SR+ 51K I get about 229 miles at 100%, advertised range was 250 when it was purchased new.
Pros: 229 miles at 100%
Cons: range loss
Mileage: 51000 km
Yes, my 2021 battery died mid 2024. No warnings, no abnormal behaviour. Luckily it was still under warranty and the towing and repairing were free.
Pros: towing and repairing free
Cons: no abnormal behaviour
I recently had to sell my 2013 model s for scrap value because the battery was out of spec. Tesla wanted 25k to replace. It was right at 200,000 miles.
Cons: battery out of spec
Mileage: 200000 km
