First of all, there might be differences for the latest batteries from the research reports we can read about today.
From history we know that some of the basics do not change much so it still very probable that the basics still apply.
One thing that could change is the exact limit for the central graphite peak. I think it can vary slightly depending on the amoujt of some chemistries in the anod (or maybe the cathode).
I still would guess that it is in the whereabouts of 72% true SOC. So as far as I can estimate 70% displayed or below should be fine.
In the same way the LFP BMS has a hard time judging medium SOC’s it is possible that the capacity estimation ia not that easy.
Maybe the BMS need a series of full charges and a ”BMS calibration” to estimate the capacity better?
Do you use sentry?
If possible have it off on nights so the BMS can measure the OCV.
Charge full, let it sleep at lesst a couple of hours, then try to het the SOC down to ~10% or less, let it sleep there.
Charge full, let it sleep.
A series of these might help the BMS to better estimate the capacity.
This is teslaloggers data for 2021 Model 3 SR+ with the Lfp battery.
I’m not sure why there is two batches or data. It might be different wheels selected, for the model S plaid it is the same thing (wheel selection dependent).
We can see that the lowest degradation cars seem to loose about 2.5% for 20K km ( roughly one year I guess).
For the ODO, LFP cars is supposed to loose almost nothing due to cycles.
Remember, the average LR/P car witj lithium ion cells loose 0.5% or so to cycles each year. And the LFP has a fraction of that.
So the miles is not a thing for comparison.
The other way around, we have said that people with LFP cars might need to do the ”at least once a week” procedure to keep the BMS in track.
As you seem slightly unhappy with the situation, I think doing the BMS calib. As per above might be a good idea, and during this time, charge full often. Let the BMS see the end points of the battery.
On the other end, I know a guy using all of the battery every day on a Y LFP. Charge to 100% every day.
He arrives home with single digit or 0% or slightly below. Actually he got stranded one day from the BMS overestimating the capacity by about 1.5-2% as it seemed.
Another day he arrived home but the car was out of energy and also drained the LV batt.
From that it was quite easy to undersrand that ecen if this guy do 100% to zero drives every weekday, the BMS
was not able to judge the capacity very precise. The error was overestimation despite practically giving the BMS a BMS calib every day.
It is possible that this is valid for the other cars you compare with.

I do not have any data to show right now but from what I have seen it looks like the low SOC strategy actually work well with the LFP’s on the swedish forum also anong the friends using LFP (very few LFP:ers around but still a couple).
I will try to check a little and see.
