If you assume the Model S and Model X are representative of other EVs, then about 94% of it: https://electrek.co/2018/04/14/tesla-battery-degradation-dat...

And keep in mind that degradation is fastest at the beginning, so at 200000km, you have about 92% of what you started with, not the 88% you'd expect if it were linear.




Those numbers are phenomenal, hard to believe to be honest. Tesla owners, testing their Tesla's to publish results in a pro Tesla publication isn't exactly what I'm looking for. There must be scientific measurements writeups of these issues.


Easy to achieve if the batteries are overallocated at the start and software limited.
