vehicle batteries are designed to outlast the vehicle itself, but as of now your Tesla Model S battery should last between 300,000 and 500,000 miles. The Tesla Model S should also retain 80% of their performance range, even once surpassing 200,000 miles. Tesla owner Elon Musk had his company start offering a minimum 70% battering retention guarantee for the first eight years (or 100,000 to 120,000 miles) of owning your vehicle.

- Range of battery degrades over the 30% warranty criteria
- Tesla notifies that there is something wrong with your battery
