Aussie Summer Road Trips with EJerry: Expert Tips to Prevent EV Degradation

EV Battery Care: Preventing Degradation

Your EV's battery is the lifeblood of your electric car, and its well-being is paramount for a successful summer journey. Battery degradation can occur due to several factors, including environmental conditions and the simple passage of time.
Environmental Challenges: Australian summers can be relentless, and high temperatures can have a detrimental impact on your battery's lifespan. For instance, continued exposure to high temperatures can lead to faster degradation, while freezing temperatures can reduce its capacity by up to 32%.
Time Component: Interestingly, even if you don't drive your EV long distances, battery degradation can still occur over time. It's a natural part of a battery's lifecycle.

Tips to Evade EV Battery Degradation

To ensure your EV battery remains robust during the sizzling Australian summer and beyond, consider these strategies:

• Steer Clear of Discharging Below 20%: It's advisable to avoid letting your battery dip below the 20% mark. Maintaining a moderate charge level can significantly extend your battery's longevity.
• Charge Up to 80%: EJERRY is a game-changer with its remarkable charging time of just 2 hours to reach 80% capacity. Charging to 100% often can accelerate battery degradation, so the 80% charge sweet spot is ideal.
• Temperature Matters: Keep your EV at the right temperature. Extreme heat can be as damaging as extreme cold, so park your EV in shaded areas when possible.
• Light on the Pedal: Avoiding aggressive driving (being a "lead foot") can help preserve your battery over time.
