2021 Model 3 LR: Nominal Full Pack (KWH) - Predicted Range (KM) vs. Driven Distance

The owner of a 2021 Tesla Model 3 LR has noticed a decline in battery capacity and predicted range over the past year. The battery capacity has declined from 73.5 kWh to 69.5 kWh, a decline of 5.44% over 40,000 km driven. If this rate of decline continues, the owner estimates that after 5 years the battery capacity will decline to 55.6 kWh and range will drop to 398.6 km. The owner is concerned this rate of decline is higher than the 1-2% Tesla estimates for the LG battery and wants Tesla to analyze the battery for any defects.

My Tesla-3 -LR 31-Mar-2022

My

2021 Model 3 LR
VIN 5YJ3E7EB6MF894143

I own my Tesla-3 for a year, I extremely satisfy from the car at almost every aspect, I’m a great fun of Tesla

any how I have one concern:

My Tesla -3 are one year old this week, the expected range was declined from 540Km to 506Km about 6% yearly
declined

Accordingly, capacity was 73.5KWh when bought and now 69.5KWh this represents similarly 5.44% decline

) consider 74.5KWH LG battery when new, degradation show 6.5% /Year)

The case might be even worst if consider only last 6 moth, (20K Km) where most battery decided occurred

Look at battery decline per year consider last half year will indicate 12% capacity decline a year.

My Battery Capacity, and Predicated Range vs. KM driven.

Battery at Tesla expected to decline at 1% yearly, or even worst at 2% yearly.


assume my battery continue to decline at 5.44% yearly, after 5 years

My range/Capacity will be:

related to 5.44% decline (calculate current capacity / since I first measure)


Period [Year] Range [%] Range [Km] Capacity [KWH]
0 100.00% 540.0 73.5
1 94.56% 510.6 69.5
2 89.41% 479.9 65.7

8 63.91% 331.1 47.0

Same table related to 6.7% decline (calculate current capacity / LG-New-Capacity) “


Period [Year] Range [%] Range [Km] Capacity [KWH]
0 100.00% 540.0 73.5
1 94.00% 507.6 69.1
2 88.36% 477.1 64.9

7 64.85% 350.2 47.7
8 60.96% 329.2 44.8

Look at predicted battery performance consider last half year decline trend (-10% year):
Period [Year] Range[%] Range [Km] Capacity [KWH]
0 100.00% 540.0 73.5
1 90.00% 486.0 66.2
2 81.00% 437.4 59.5
3 72.90% 393.7 53.6
4 65.61% 354.3 48.2
5 59.05% 318.9 43.4
6 53.14% 287.0 39.1
7 47.83% 258.3 35.2
8 43.05% 232.5 31.6
I do my best to maintain long range:

• Avoid Super-charge - 95.9% of my charge are AC. (11KWH)


• Avoid charge above 80% -> less than 2% of my charge are >80%
• Speed: I wasn’t drive too fast: look at my speed distribution.
• Didn’t Over-accelerate or use high capacity/KM - use 152 Wh/KM at my last 16K Km
Speed Distribution:
My last 16K Km was at 152Kh/Km – relatively chill drive.

Also my 41K km was at 163 Wh/Km chill drive.

Note that I started measure after 20K Km

Summery:

I want Tesla to analyze if there is any battery defect, as LG Long-Range battery, expected to decline <2% yearly,
or to replace my battery if needed…
