Model S and Model X receive 8-year/240,000 km coverage with guaranteed minimum 70% battery capacity retention. Model 3/Y Standard Range models include 8-year/160,000 km protection, while Long Range and Performance variants extend to 8-year/192,000 km.
Transitioning to safety systems, Tesla’s 5-year/100,000 km warranty covers seatbelts and airbags, ensuring critical protections remain operational. Additionally, structural integrity is backed by a 12-year corrosion warranty—though this only applies to perforation caused by manufacturing flaws, excluding external damage or improper repairs.
