Well, I just want to share this with you as my first post here... I own a 2022 Model Y P with 17600 miles & around 6000kwh used and a 2022 Model 3 P with 20738 miles and the same 6000kwh used, two different charging methods for both, the Y has been charged a lot more at superchargers and to 100% since we used it for a lot road trips (90% for daily use), the model 3 was charged strictly to 80% in a level 2 charger every day and it has been in a supercharger just 5 times over 12 months, it has been charged to 100% 3 times only... so two different ways to keep the battery alive... I thought it will have different results...
So I'll share the pictures from the health test I did for both cars...
The model Y has 92% SOH after being "beaten" with a supercharger almost half of her life and charging it to 90% when needed (not plugged daily since I have free level 2 charger at work and I take it with me every few days to charge it)... and the model 3 has 91% SOH after being charged 99% of the time on a level 2 charger to 80% since I bought it, charging it every day but Sundays (I charge it always at work) and it has been just 5 times to a supercharger station...
I really was hoping to get a "big win" from the model 3, since it has been charged in the most battery friendly way... but in this case it lost against a more standard-rough charging method...
So, what should I think about it, I should still care how I charge my cars? (well I got used to, so I'm not going to change the way I charge both cars)... why the model 3 lost this battle? I really was expecting a very different result from the model 3, and I got the expected result from the Y...
I'll do this test in a year and see if something changes for worse (or better)...
Thank you all for reading this...
