Notice a slight drop in range since I bought my 2015 Renault Zoe about 4 years ago. Some of that can be chalked up to a tyre change (to a set with better handling, grip, slightly less efficient). I've checked myself on the canZE app and it's saying 98% state of health. I'm interested to see how that compares to the Aviloo test so may try it at some point.
What i would be interested in is the repair costs of the Tesla's especially John Casey's since purchase as the build quality of Tesla's is often knocked. My Leaf is at 89.37% after 129,500 Kms. It lost 0.4% since the last scan which was a shade over 11,000Kms ago.
Does that mean a 10 year old electric car in the future is guna be a bit useless? As it has lost 10 to 15% of its engine. Where as a petrol car is still 100% working over d same period. The sooner hydrogen takes off the better. I think BEV cars are just a stop gap. I would not recommend .
A loss of 10 to 15% is no big deal when you have a big battery and lots of places to charge. I don’t think it’s likely that hydrogen will take over. No car manufacturers are betting on it.
Not at all. The EV is still completely usable, just had slightly less range. Don't pretend petrol and diesel cars don't degrade just because you can't measure it. The piston rings are constantly being worn down, with the engine becoming less and less efficient every year. Doing a complete engine rebuild is not an easy task. The majority get scrapped between 100k and 200k miles because it's too costly to recondition the engine and other parts of the car are failing too. Here we have an example of an EV with over 120,000 miles and 11% degradation. This car still has plenty of life left in it.

200,000km driven in 4-1/2 years. WOW.
For us across the pond that's over 124,000 miles, or about 2,300 miles per month. That's quite a bit.
I have an opel corsa e with 71k km..but no idea what battery degredation is at. Opel.do not know how to check. It is 2 years old.
