I see lots of posts worried about range and battery degradation. I, too, worried about it a lot watching this degradation take place using Stats. Around 25k miles I even asked Tesla to look into the HV battery during a service visit for an unrelated issue. (Service Center was great, btw, and has always been quick to help) They ran a report and said my HV battery was fine and within spec. That was last around Q3 2019.

I took what they said with a grain of salt and just decided to watch, wait, and trust.

So for all of you in a similar boat, I wanted to make a positive post. I think for a two year old car with 33k miles, this is pretty good. At 100% charge, the car reports 308 miles range. 325/308 = ~95% of original capacity.

I'm not sure if the range increase is due to the warmer months, software updates, or both, but I'm no longer worried about the HV battery.

I usually charge between 20 - 80. Mostly on L2 until Covid came along and I lost access to the L2 chargers at work. I've been using the superchargers about once a week for what limited driving I do now working from home.

So, hopefully, this will ease some people's worry.
