EVERYTHING WRONG WITH MY HIGH MILEAGE 21 TESLA MODEL 3! BATTERY HEALTH AND OTHER ISSUES!

EV Channels Review

This video provides an in-depth look at a 2021 Tesla Model 3 that has accumulated over 216,000 miles, primarily as a taxi. The reviewer highlights the car's surprisingly good condition, both cosmetically and mechanically. A key finding is the battery health, which remains at an impressive 88% of its original capacity, with the reviewer attributing this longevity partly to consistent use and a lower proportion of DC charging. While the car has needed some minor repairs, such as a parking sensor and suspension bushes, these were relatively inexpensive. The original brake discs and pads are noted as worn but functional. The reviewer concludes that electric cars are indeed viable for high-mileage use, offering significant cost savings in both energy and maintenance compared to internal combustion engine vehicles. The video also touches on practical aspects like cabin filter replacement and the potential for cosmetic refurbishment.
