What is the going rate for replacing a Tesla's battery pack in its entirety?

Batteries for a Tesla can be very expensive to replace.

Depending on the size and type of battery needed for the Tesla, the price can be anything from a few hundred to several thousand dollars.

A Tesla Model 3 battery replacement, for example, might cost anywhere from $4,000 to $7,000.

However, depending on quality, a Model X battery can set you back anywhere from $6,500 to more than $12,000.

Repairing or replacing the Model S's battery pack might cost upwards of $20,000.

Tesla, which does not pay for battery replacements but offers equivalent warranties, will replace a battery for a small fee if the Tesla's range is reduced.

In the long run, it will cost a lot of money to replace all of the batteries in a Tesla.
