In the case of a tesla you would not have to factor in battery replacement.

Cost to replace battery in tesla. So to answer the question on the price of the tesla model 3s battery the cost per kwh is at 150 which equates to 7500 of this models battery pack. While it would still likely be the most costly component in the car its starting to become reasonable in a 35000 vehicle. The fact that tesla batteries show very minimal degradation after 5 years has been a very unexpected surprise. Check out the video for more details.

If we assume a 55 kwh battery pack the battery in the base model 3 would cost less than 6875. It can go lower as the design and technology catch up. New report suggests model 3 to cost 50k or more. Tesla could drive down its battery cost to the 100kwh level.

Batteries will be much more affordable. Starting from the less than 190kwh cost and applying a 35 reduction leads to less than 124kwh. The controversial incident revealed that tesla was exacting a price of 40000 to replace the 53 kwh hour pack in the roadster. In march of this year there was a minor uproar over tesla roadster batteries being bricked a way of saying that the battery pack was fully depleted and needed to be entirely replaced.

Tesla is now claiming 35 battery cost reduction at gigafactory 1 hinting at breakthrough cost below 125kwh. If tesla has 1 3 gigafactory and there are other companies out there also. Also keep in mind that teslas battery warranty does not and never did cover capacity degradation.
