I can’t tell the number of miles. It looks like a 2013 - should still be under the battery warranty (8 years, 150K miles with 70% retention ) ??? Regardless, I doubt this is a typical situation unless the battery has been abused (the equivalent in a gas car is never changing the oil). There are Model Ss out there with 300K miles on the original battery. Cherry picking to fit your narrative.
