Batteries don’t continue to drop in capacity at the same rate after first year. 4% per year is a misleading way of describing it. Many LFP battery examples are doing just fine in Norway where the cold may affect it more than the NCA types but not by much. It still makes a lot of difference to NCA and all ev’s actually, so not LFP significantly more. I wish my 2019 SR+ actually had the LFP batteries, but I don’t need more than 30% of the range except on very rare occasions, and it works very well on long touring trips around Europe even when the SuC rate was capped at 100kW, so I am still totally ok with managing my battery for long life.

I think the move to LFP for the entry-level model (the one that most mainstream users can afford) is a smart move. When I think of people like my mom, who is definitely not a tech geek, I can see how the simplicity of being able to charge it to 100% and keep it there as much as one wants will make way more sense to regular folks who don't have the time nor interest to educate themselves on how best to maintain their batteries. Even Apple has had to make workarounds for people's tendencies to what to keep their phones at 100% (e.g. once it establishes that you regularly charge at the same times of day, it'll charge your phone to 80%, until an hour or two before you get up in the morning and the push it to 100%. So I think the durability of the LFP battery is going to be a big win as Tesla begins to enter the mainstream.

We just ordered the long range Model 3 this week. It looks like delivery will be in the late January perhaps mid February time frame. We live in Colorado where the AWD just might come in handy and when you get ready to sell it AWD becomes almost mandatory. Since we are retired and do not always need to drive everyday, the 80% charge level is not a problem for us, in fact we are thinking that we may be able to get by with the 110 volt overnight charging in our garage. Thanks for sharing this video with us.

Hey, answering from Sweden here. I would recommend getting an 11kW box for charging because its far more safer. Using ur standard outlet is not recommend and should only used for travels or as an emergency charger. The heat between the outlet and plug might make the connection failing overtime and could start a fire which might lead to fatal consequences. I work as an maintence electrician and have seem this happen a few times, also installed several boxes. The outlet could work for years but you can never trust it fully. Also when charging at home you can charge up to 100% as the charge process is slower meaning lesser heat for the battery. SuC is another part where you charge fast meaning more heat for the battery thus they have set 80% for not damaging the battery4. Enjoy your car and hopefully you get a box for charging :)

I got my Model 3 SR+ from China with LFP in September 2021 (I'm from Germany). This will be my first winter. I heard negative things about LFP in the last winter, one Tesla's battery was on 14 % and then was going out on the autobahn. It's because Tesla's customers are the testers. But those problems were solved fast and I'm very happy with my LFP, because I can charge it to 100 % without beeing afraid of degradation of the battery. But charging on a supercharger is relatively slow. Last sunday I charged on a V3 SC with just 100 kW and on a V2 with 50 kW. But since I mostly charge at home with 11 kW it doesn't matter to me. I'm happy that my M3 is going to 100 km/h in 5.6 seconds, because the newest ones are half a second slower (6.1 sec), but for that the battery is now 5 kWh more (now 60 kWh) and steering wheel heating and heated seats in the rear are now included, but price went up 3,000 €.

I managed to get a 2021 Model 3 SR+ made in Freemont with the CATL LFP battery pack. I am very happy with the car. I am happy to point out to naysayers who think Tesla drivers are always having to sit at Superchagers that, on the contrary, I leave home every day with a "full tank" since my car charges overnight to 100% and warms itself up for my scheduled departure. I rarely go to a Supercharger, and I never go to a gas station. This car is very fast and nimble, and easily outperforms my old BMW 328i, which I hated. Range is a bit of a moving target. Yesterday's drive was an all-dey 205 miles in mildly cold weather (~40 F) and was dipping below 10% range as we approached the end of the journey, so I chickened out and stopped off at a Supercharger about 5 miles from my house for 6-minutes. I think that's not bad performance considering all the stops with sentry on, ferrying one to three passengers around, etc.

The Model 3 Long Range has always been my only choice. The gasoline powered vehicles we own all have a practical range that exceeds 400 miles. The Model 3 Long Range's 358 miles isn't even 300 miles after you subtract 10% at each end to avoid abusing the battery and to leave a reserve to avoid getting stranded with a flat battery.

I’d like to know where you get 4% loss of battery capacity per year for the Li Ion batteries in the long range Model 3? If that were the case then Tesla will need to replace a lot of batteries under warranty. The battery is guaranteed to not drop below 70% in 8 years or 192,000Kms. By your math the battery would drop to 68% after 8 years. My Model 3 is almost 4 Years old and has 95,000Kms, I have about 8% loss of capacity, so this would work out to 2%/year loss.

The Volt automatically restricts the accessible battery capacity to about 85% of the true battery capacity to prevent usage at the high and low SoC extremes. You can see this by looking at the battery info page after running out of EV miles and comparing it to the true ~18.4 kWh battery capacity. So we are still bound by the laws of physics, but best practice has been programmed in and we can't override it. Source: proud Chevy Volt owner

I recall getting this information from LTT's Model Y review, but most electric cars come with buffers in their batteries, so the car actually doesn't use up all of it's capacity. However, as the battery degrades, the car taps into the buffer so you get the same range brand new after say, a few years. Obviously, it'll run out at some point, but that'll be a long while. I'm pretty sure Tesla's don't do the same as they use up all of the battery but I could be wrong.

LFP is the reason I don't regret getting the 2022 RWD. In Atlanta, I am not going to be able to really be able to miss the faster 0-60 time, as there almost always too much traffic around. This is going to be my daily commute car, and the range is plenty good for that, considering I will be starting at 100% instead of 80%. Saving $9,000 on the list price makes the RWD a bargain, and I can likely convince my wife soon to get the FSD package because of the initial price savings. I probably could have kept my 9 year old Honda Accord for a bit longer, but car prices seem to be on a upward swing as are interest rates, so locking in the Model 3 RWD right away was the best decision. To my amazement my delivery happened in weeks, and not months, so can't complain about that either. The panels seem to all be properly aligned, and the paint looks to be defect free. I am a very happy Tesla owner now.

The biggest supporting factor for LFPs is cost, which I didn't hear being stressed much in this video. While LFPs are not as energy dense as NCAL they are safer and much cheaper. I understand that supply chain constraints are inflating the current cost of the Model 3. However, as Tesla continues to ramp up production and as LFP models become available, I expect these prices to come down - drastically so for LFP models. It would be a real shame if Tesla were to get greedy and continue pricing at ~$45,000+ minimum for LFP models well into 2022.

Read the comment again. *"I understand that supply chain constraints are inflating the current cost of the Model 3.

You are right - it is unlikely that the global supply chain crisis will have been fully remedied by the end of 2022. On the other hand many logistics experts predict that we will begin experiencing relief in individual sectors - such as semi-conductors - somewhere between the end of 2022 and mid 2023. Additionally, Tesla is as we speak working to bring online new factories - some of which are expected to enter production by year end. With this in mind I would like to reiterate: *as Tesla continues to ramp up production and as LFP models become available, I expect these prices to come down* . Save for potential continuity in supply chain issues (which Musk himself, if you believe him anyway, has already stated is a pain point they intend to address within their engineering and production process) there would be no excuse for Tesla prices to increase or even remain stagnant while battery and production costs decline - except for increasing profit margins, anyway.

It simply won't matter, unless you plan on keeping the car for life - or you drive extreme distances very often with very little charging margin.

...im still confused.. if the EU have adopted the CCS standard for charging infrastructure, why haven't the USA adopted the same.. better yet, why does both the US and EU decide once and for all that there should be a standard charging port to any & all EV charging ports anywhere in the world..? again, why does china have their own charging standard, the GB/T plug..? these are interesting topics to discuss coz these is causing major delays in the further development of EVs in the world.. there should be a body, that decides these standards so that the world can fast track the shift to EVs.. just like the USB standard, just like the Bluetooth standard.. etc.. once the type of charging port is standardized, then everyone just makes the port just like anywhere else, which enhances manufacturing and deployment of EVs everywhere.. it also makes all charging stations compatible to all EVs.. this also means that there is no need to make adapters for different ports.. if TESLA can deliver CCS to EU, then china also should adopt the CCS standard, and the USA too.. then makers of charging stations get to make a single charging standard for their charging stations.. which can be sold either locally or internationally, making it a lot cheaper due to manufacturing at scale..

I ordered my midnight silver metallic M3 Performance on November 2nd. Ordering one day after November 1st inadvertently made my M3P a 2022. My delivery is set for next Thursday the 18th. When I ordered my car was 57 grand and my paint was 1,000 bucks. Two days later my car was 58 grand and my paint was free. Of course I was locked in regardless but the price and the paint flipped but nothing changed. Too funny. Tesla kills me sometimes.

I just came from a late 2018 S to a RWD 3. The 3 is amazing. Fast enough, mega efficiency, new bigger battery, LFP meaning 100% charge. Even the stereo is very good, I actually prefer the sound to my ‘premium’ sound in the S with subwoofer. I have the white interior and that really makes the car. I have been running it so far in sub 10 degrees C and it was snowing yesterday and it’s averaging 250kwh on shortish trips when it isn’t at its most efficient. So it will get 250 miles roughly on road trips in UK winter. I expect maybe 275+ in summer which is excellent. About 50 miles more than my 75D S.

From an article on what it costs to drive a Tesla. (We determined) what it really costs to charge an electric vehicle each month and came to the conclusion that it is in the price range from $25 to $33. If you have a Tesla Model 3 it would cost you about $29 to charge your car for one month seeing that you are driving around 500 miles a month, which is actually a lot more than some people do. (No it isn't. Most people drive at least 1000, or 12,000 per year) Now for gas-fueled vehicles, say you have a Sedan that averages about 28 miles a gallon, you travel about 500 miles a month. Driving that much you would use probably around 18 gallons of gas. With the U.S. average gas prices being around $3.18 per gallon you are looking at $57.24 a month. Figure at least double the cost. You also have to pay more when you travel. (For 1000 miles, double it again) Yes, you will save money, but it isn't cheap, and you may pay much more for the Tesla than an equivalent ICE car. Also consider the inconvenience of having to charge and looking for a charging station before you run out of juice. With an ICE car, there are gas stations everywhere, and it only takes 5 minutes to fill up and be gone.

I went with the 2022 M3 LR. I live in New England and all wheel drive is a must. I'd rather have longer range and higher ride height then faster 0-60 and sport wheels that will clog with snow & slush throwing off the balance. I had a Subaru Impreza sport with sport rims and the ice would clog up and cause shaking so I'd have to spray off the ice constantly.

You should really be comparing the AWD ID4 against the AWD Model Y, although your point does stand that the M3 is still a faster car. There are others things that electric vehicle owners look for, so I think they both have their place, together with the other new entrants like the Ioniq 5.

Do you have a VIN yet? That would determine if your car is made. If not, you're likely getting the LFP one.
