Tesla's own reports state that there is approximately 12% battery degradation after 200,000 miles for Model S and X, and around 15% for the Model 3 and Y. A noteworthy case study showcased a 2019 Model S that underwent rigorous usage and managed to reach 250,000 miles while still maintaining commendable performance metrics. The vehicle demonstrated efficiency levels comparable to newer models, underlining Tesla’s engineering prowess and the durability of its vehicles.
