Based on standard Li-ion LFP/NMC degradation curves. Fast charging frequently can accelerate degradation by 2-3% extra over few years.

About EV Battery Life Estimation

The life of an electric vehicle battery is primarily determined by its **State of Health (SOH)**. Most manufacturers guarantee batteries for 8 years or 1.6 lakh kilometers, but with proper care, many EV batteries can last well over 10-12 years before needing replacement or repurposing for stationary storage.

Key Features of this Estimator

  • Predicts degradation based on current vehicle age and mileage.
  • Considers the impact of **DC Fast Charging** vs slow home charging.
  • Estimated curves for both **LFP (Lithium Iron Phosphate)** and **NMC (Nickel Manganese Cobalt)** chemistries.
  • Calculates final State of Health (SOH) percentage.

How to Extend Your EV Battery Life?

To maintain high battery health, avoid keeping the vehicle at 100% or 0% charge for long periods. Try to keep the charge between **20% and 80%** for daily use and minimize the use of DC Fast Chargers as they generate significant heat which can accelerate chemical degradation.

Battery Life FAQ

What is SOH?

State of Health (SOH) represents the current battery capacity compared to its original capacity when new.

When should I replace the battery?

Usually, an EV battery is considered "end of life" for a car when SOH drops below 70-75%.

Does weather affect health?

Yes, extreme heat is the biggest enemy of battery longevity, especially during fast charging.
