Used electric car battery: health, range and charging
Choose the model, version and year: battery health estimate from a study of more than 22,700 EVs, remaining range and charging time by charger. 108 electric models covered.
Where the figures come from
Battery health is estimated with the average loss measured by Geotab on more than 22,700 electric cars tracked by telematics: 2.3% a year on average, 1.5% with little rapid charging, 3.0% with a lot of rapid charging above 100 kW, and 0.4% more a year in hot climates. Capacities, ranges and charging powers come from the sources listed on each model's guide.
Differences between models and between cars are large: a battery can be much better or worse than average. The estimate does not replace a battery test.

Frequently asked questions
How long does an electric car battery last?
According to Geotab (more than 22,700 cars tracked), a battery loses 2.3% of its capacity a year on average: about 82% remains after 8 years. It usually outlasts the car itself.
Does rapid charging damage the battery?
It wears it faster: 3.0% loss a year on average for cars often charged above 100 kW, against 1.5% for those rarely charged that way (Geotab).
How long does charging take on a domestic socket?
A 10 A socket delivers about 2.3 kW: roughly 1 hour per 2.3 kWh, so around twenty hours for an empty 50 kWh battery, a little more with losses. A 7.4 kW wallbox cuts that time by three.
How do I find out a battery's health before buying?
Ask for a recent battery health (SoH) certificate from a garage or a battery diagnosis service. Do not rely on the range shown on the dashboard: it depends on recent driving.
