Battery Tesla or OEM Volkswagen

2017 got a new battery in 2023 before winter, didn't have a no start issue but figured it was time. Went with a dealer battery, was only $138ish for the 72ah upgrade and replaced it in their parking lot to get the core charge back.

I have a 22 Model 3 RWD although with a little less mileage (~50k)... haven't done a health test or anything but it's still reporting somewhere between 417 and 410 on a full charge, depending on "factors". But it did the same when I bought it 2 years ago. In real world usage, can't tell you that I've noticed any.

For an all-arounder, the Tesla Highland refresh LR RWD is likely the answer. OOSR tested it and got 4.9 miles per kWh (204 Wh/mile) on their 70 mph highway cruising test, besting a Lucid Air Grand Touring by almost 15%.

Update: it was just the battery, everything works fine after replacement and coding/adaptation. No error codes. Thanks everyone

At 4 years both our Teslas appear to have essentially the same range as new. Which is to say a bit lower than Tesla advertised but no worse

Warranty: side repeater, spoiler, battery (at 82k)

After 3 years, my Tesla Model 3’s battery range dropped about 7 to 15 percent, which seems pretty typical based on what others report. It isn’t catastrophic, but it is definitely noticeable for anyone doing longer trips.

My 2021 model 3 is also in for a battery swap. Furtunantely i still got warrenty. Only lasted 100k kilometers.

On the day of delivery itself, the car wouldn\u2019t start. The dealership jump-started it and said there was a small battery issue, assuring me that it won\u2019t happen again. But from that day onwards, the vehicle has never been reliable.

My only issue is I see my battery range moving down significantly. I'm currently doing calculations to see if the battery will be up for warranty replacement.
