How This EV Battery Degradation Calculator Works

This calculator estimates how your electric vehicle's batbattery capacity wibattery cbattery capacitbattery capacity will degrade over time based on various usage factors and conditions.

The Calculation

We calculate capacity loss by considering age-related degradation, charge cycle count, temperature impacts, and charging behavior effects on the battery.

Key Variables

Key variables include battery age, total mileage (which determines charge cycles), charging patterns, climate conditions, and battery chemistry.

Assumptions

The calculator uses industry data on typical degradation rates. Actual degradation can vary based on your specific vehicle model, manufacturing quality, and battery management system.
