How to compare Tesla trims properly

Three numbers actually matter when you're comparing Tesla variants: usable capacity in kWh — how much energy you can actually draw from the pack; rated range — the manufacturer's official distance figure derived from that capacity at a fixed efficiency; and real-world efficiency in Wh/mile, which determines whether you'll actually see that rated range in practice. The biggest variable across the current lineup isn't outright battery size — it's drivetrain. RWD LFP variants trade some capacity for efficiency and a lower price, while AWD and Performance trims add weight and consumption that eats into their larger packs.

As a reference point, current-generation usable capacities span roughly 60 kWh on a Model 3 or Model Y RWD (LFP) up to 95 kWh on Model S and Model X, with Cybertruck at 123 kWh — use the table above to see the exact figure, range and efficiency for every trim side by side.

Usable vs gross capacity — why the spec-sheet number isn't the number you get

Manufacturers sometimes quote a pack's raw ("gross") capacity in press materials, but that isn't the figure that determines your range — the car reserves a buffer at the very top and bottom of the pack that you never actually access, to protect the cells over the car's lifetime. Every figure in this finder, and on our battery specs & facts page, is usable capacity for exactly that reason — it's the only number that lines up with the range you'll actually see and the result our battery health calculator produces.

EV Finder FAQs

What's the difference between usable and gross battery capacity?
Gross (or nominal) capacity is the raw size of the battery pack as built. Usable capacity is what you can actually draw down day to day — it's always a little smaller, because the car reserves a buffer at both the very top and very bottom of the pack to protect cell longevity and stop you ever truly hitting 0% or 100% at the cell level. The figures in this finder, and on our battery specs page, are usable capacity, which is the number that determines the range you'll actually see.
Which Tesla has the longest range right now?
It changes as Tesla updates each model's pack and efficiency, so rather than quote a figure that can go stale, use the table above — sort by range or usable capacity to see the current longest-range variant across the whole lineup, updated as new model years launch.
Is a bigger battery always better?
Not necessarily. A larger pack adds weight and cost, and the trim's efficiency (Wh per mile) matters just as much for real-world range as raw capacity does. A smaller, more efficient RWD variant can sometimes out-range a heavier, larger-battery AWD or Performance version in mixed driving, even with fewer kWh on board.
Does this tool include the Cybertruck?
Yes — Cybertruck's AWD and Cyberbeast variants are included alongside every Model 3, Model Y, Model S and Model X trim, using the same usable-capacity methodology throughout, so you can compare across the entire current Tesla range in one place.
