Estimates from the specs and U.S. average prices, including about 10% charging losses at home. Supercharging slows as the battery fills, so times vary with the site, the weather and the battery's temperature.

Battery and warranty

Chemistry: LFP (CATL LFP prismatic). LFP packs are happy to be charged to 100% regularly; Tesla recommends it at least weekly.
Battery and drive unit warranty: 8 years or 100,000 miles, with at least 70% of the battery's capacity guaranteed.
VIN, 7th character: F = LFP (Shanghai-built cars, and all Model 3s from 2024). E = nickel-based — but on Fremont-built cars before 2024, E just means “electric”, so use the touchscreen check.
VIN, 11th character: plant — C = Shanghai, F = Fremont. VINs starting LRW are Shanghai-built, 5YJ Fremont-built.
