vs
Battery Tesla or OEM Volvo
My tesla model y recommendation is 90%. I know lfp batteries are recommended to do 100% at least weekly. We do 90% but drive the car about 100 miles every work day so it doesn't even sit at 90% for very long, maybe 3-4 hours.
I got 14 years out of the battery in my Volvo.
Pros: long lifespan
Vehicle:
Volvo
I have a ‘21 (Dec 2020) M3 LR AWD w/19”. I’ve put 52K miles on it so far. Generally speaking, I’ve seen very little degradation.
Pros: very little degradation
Cons: range overly optimistic
Mileage: 52000 km
I bought a used 2019 LR in 2020 and my estimated range is 302 miles with 48k miles.
Pros: 302 miles range
Mileage: 48000 km
Had a Tesla (my username checks out) Model S since 2012 in Ottawa. No problem. Prepare to lose range during winter. (20%ish ) Preheating is key. Check out PlugShare for charging stations. I drove the car in -32 and +32 ! It’s great.
Pros: no problem
Cons: lose range during winter
Tesla Model 3 long range and 2018 Leaf for over a year now.
Winter is about 30% less range at very cold, worse for short drives where you need to heat a lot for the whole drive (and if battery is cold). In the later case you're near home so it doesn't matter.
Pros: instantaneous torque at 0
Cons: 30% less range
How practical is a Tesla for a person with a 30-mile commute (each way)? Between my commute and running around, I probably spend $80 per week on gas.
A month ago I bought a 2022 M3P with 7k miles, was at 310 estimated fully charged, now 280 all of a sudden at 10k miles.
Pros: 310 estimated fully charged
Cons: 280 all of a sudden
Mileage: 10000 km
