Study finds EV batteries retain ~90% capacity after 150,000 km

A new study has found that electric vehicle batteries are more durable than many drivers had assumed. Used EVs were found to retain approximately 90% of their original usable battery capacity after 150,000 kilometres of use. The findings challenge widespread consumer concerns about long-term battery degradation in electric vehicles. This data could help boost confidence among prospective EV buyers who have hesitated due to fears over battery lifespan.
