Study finds EV batteries retain 90% capacity after 150,000 km
Source Summary
A study indicates that used electric vehicles can retain approximately 90% of their original usable battery capacity after traveling 150,000 km. This finding suggests that EV batteries are more durable than previously feared by consumers.
Why it matters
Battery longevity is a key concern for EV adoption, and this study provides evidence that batteries degrade more slowly than commonly assumed, potentially reducing long-term ownership costs.
