A Tesla can cost a lot of money to have all its batteries replaced.

The cost can range from a few hundred dollars to several thousand dollars, depending on the size of the Tesla's battery and the type of battery required.

For instance, depending on the battery condition, replacing the battery in a Tesla Model 3 might cost between $4,000 and $7,000.

A Model X battery, on the other hand, can cost anywhere between $6,500 and over $12,000, depending on quality.

For a Model S, replacing the entire battery pack may cost up to $20,000 or more.

Tesla offers comparable warranties, will even replace a battery for a little fee if the Tesla's range is compromised, and does not cover the cost of battery replacement.

It will ultimately cost a lot of money to replace every battery in a Tesla.
