Well that fits close enough to my numbers. 800km is close to the TS maximum range. Let’s say at 365 days a year single shifted subtract a few public holidays and other down time then a thousand recharge cycles after daily maximum range use of 800km and BOOM it’s ferked after three years.
And if we factor in the classic 80% real world lifespan vs any manufacturer claim and im bang on the money. Never mind that about halfway through all that it’s likely the battery will not be performing at its original capacity. This is well documented science for all battery types.
