Battery - High Voltage	Specifications
Type	Liquid-cooled lithium ion (Li-ion)
Nominal Voltage	355V DC
Temperature Range	Do not expose Model 3 to ambient temperatures above 60° C or below -30° C for more than 24 hours at a time.

For LFP battery: Vehicles with a lithium iron phopshate (LFP) battery have different charge limits. Refer to the information on your vehicle touchscreen (navigate to Controls > Charging) or the mobile app (touch the Charging icon) for recommended daily and trip charging limits.

You can determine whether your vehicle is equipped with an LFP battery by navigating to Controls > Software > Additional Vehicle Information. High voltage battery type only shows when your battery is LFP.
