Battery Tesla or OEM Volvo
Depending on the year/model of the car you might need to have the battery "registered" using a special tool after installing it.
Just do it yourself or find an independent shop.
So on P3 cars, this light appears incredibly often. But since you’re at the point of your car not starting, you need a battery.
You don’t need to program anything to install a battery.. 2019 s90 if u want to save some money make sure u have the correct battery install at your local service center
Tesla on nmc battery drops around 10% after 8 or 10 years (can't remember exactly) from what I read. But lfp battery is inherently able to have longer life span and charge cycles. On top of inherently having ability to be safer / less explodey.
For context, I have a first generation Tesla Model S - 2014. It has 215,000-ish miles on it. The battery capacity has gone down by about 10-12%. It still runs and drives like a dream. It's on the original battery.
2018 M3P with 54K and it is right at 7%
My 2019 M3 with 50K miles says 288 miles today (310 original) but it has been far lower at times (255 miles) and bounces around.
I have a friend who bght volvo XC-90. He had horrible experience with the battery in just couple of weeks and had to replace it as part of warranty.
My first Tesla battery died after 1.5 years of gentle use and the replacement they gave me is currently at 84%. Just like my 2 year old iPhone. Batteries degrade much more than these studies suggest.
