This video presents a compelling real-world test comparing two identical Tesla Model 3 Long Range vehicles, one with 225,000 miles and another with 18,000 miles, over a 200-mile journey. The primary finding is that the high-mileage vehicle exhibited remarkably similar efficiency and range to the nearly new one, using only slightly more battery (65% vs. 65%) and recording a negligible difference in Wh/mile (221.6 vs. 220). This suggests minimal degradation in battery efficiency even after extensive use, especially when considering the older car was on all-season tires, which are typically less efficient. The review also briefly touches on the Model Y Long Range, which was slightly less efficient (235 Wh/mile) but still offered a respectable range. The video also includes a segment discussing the upcoming Grok AI integration in Teslas, showcasing its potential as a voice assistant. Overall, the test strongly supports the durability and long-term efficiency of Tesla's battery technology.
