I recall reading somewhere that the Taycan has a more efficient regen method & it sends up to 270kWh back into the battery compared to 75kWh max (?) in a Tesla.

I'm also bit concerned with battery attrition in my LR AWD.
It says 265 miles on 89% charge!! So my 100% would be only 297 miles.
15K miles, 11 months old. Almost always charged with home 7kw chargepoint
Charged in SuC only about 5 times and charged to 100% on these 5 occasions only.
Should I be contacting Tesla?
It started at 310 miles (the car is calibrated using EPA figures not WLTP) so you have 99% of your original range. Nothing to worry about there.I'm also bit concerned with battery attrition in my LR AWD.

At 13K mine is about the same as yours and I have only superchargered about 5 times as well and never to 100%I'm also bit concerned with battery attrition in my LR AWD.

Too much information can be a bad thing.I just don't get this sensitivity to apparent range at all. Most people buy a petrol or diesel car and accept that it's lost anything from 10% to 30% of its advertised range as soon as they take delivery. Very few such cars ever come close to their advertised range. Why should we expect EVs to be different?
For example, my wife bought a new Yaris Hybrid a few years ago. It was advertised as having a range of ~674 miles. The very best range she has ever been able to get out of it has been about 550 miles and most of the time the range is only around 475 miles. In range percentage terms, the very best she's managed is about 81% of the advertised range, and most of the time she only gets about 70% of the advertised range.
This isn't unusual, pretty much every car ever sold fails to live up to its specified range figure. If anything, Tesla's seem to be quite remarkable in getting far, far closer to the advertised range than the majority of other cars.
Its useful to know the remaining miles on a road trip but that is what the energy graphs are for. Percent all the wayToo much information can be a bad thing.
I changed my readout to percentage and never looked back. I don’t see the point of using miles as a guideline since you’re using an absolute measurement that will not necessarily track with actual traveled distance, as it will depend on a variety of conditions and driving style.
With percentage I have a reasonable idea of when I should be heading to a charger, without any risk of me overestimating how far I can go. Plus it avoids all this incessant obsession over degradation. The car has an 8 year battery warranty, and people have owned the cars a fraction of that time. In several years if you think it has actually degraded take it up with Tesla. Until then, chill!![]()
That's a very similar graph to what I get from Teslafi for my car. The precipitous drop is rather worrying, but I'm really not sure how much I trust it. It clearly all depends on how the BMS calculates the % and from what I have read there is a lot of potential for uncertainty there. Short of charging to 100% and driving until the car stops it's hard to know how much trust to put in it.Here’s mine. Model 3 LR AWD 2019. Noticeable drop 10k-11k (~December 2019). 2/3rds Supercharging. No change to driving style or routine.

There may be a physical reason for some cars having cliff edge battery 'degradation' graphs
