Why are there so many restrictions on Tesla battery? I have not heard of a single thing on Fiat, VW, Bolt, BMW etc on so many restrictions.
There are no restrictions discussed in this thread. None. People are talking about how to baby their battery if they want to.
Interesting, so there very best way to maintain the battery is to keep it plugged in, set the upper charger level to 50%, and never drive it!
Well, yes. But you can always say that about any car. If you never drive it, you dramatically increase the life of the car.
They're obsessive practices that will have no practical difference over the usual lifespan of owning a Tesla. If a possible difference of a couple of miles of range after many years will really matter to you, then you bought too small of a battery.
This isn't necessarily about practical differences. Some people are curious about what is optimal. Some people want to baby their battery. They're allowed to want to do that, and to discuss it. If you're not interested, skip this thread instead of coming in to complain you think they should have spent more money.
