According to the report, several Tesla owners have received communication from Tesla, offering them the LFP battery pack that brings the advantages of increased range, the recommended daily maximum state of charge of 100% compared to the previous battery’s 80% recommended SoC, as well as optimised energy capacity retention over time, even when charging the battery to 100% every day.
The letter from the Tesla service centre also stated that the newer LFP battery pack is heavier, and thus requires an upgrade of the vehicle’s rear springs and dampers to ensure that “the vehicle dynamics will stay optimal”. Tesla owners who choose to receive the battery upgrade will need to agree to the suspension upgrade, which also includes four-wheel alignment.
Tesla offers a LFP pack retrofit with upgraded rear springs and dampers! It even increases your 0-60!The heavier LFP battery pack will also have an effect on acceleration, which the letter from Tesla says increase the 0-60 mph time by around 0.5 second. Based on UK-based specifications of the 2020 Model 3, the Standard Range variant does 381 km on the WLTP cycle, while the Long Range does up to 580 km on the same test protocol.
