Built to Last: Understanding Ford EV Battery Life
Just like any vehicle, an EV's battery has a lifespan. However, advancements in lithium-ion battery technology have resulted in remarkable durability. Here's what you need to know about the batteries powering your Ford EV:
- Expected Lifespan: You can expect your Ford EV battery to function reliably for 10 to 20 years, or up to 150,000 miles, under normal driving conditions. That's comparable to a gasoline vehicle's typical lifespan!
- Battery Degradation: Over time, all batteries experience some degree of degradation, meaning their capacity to hold a charge may gradually decrease. However, this degradation is typically slow and shouldn't significantly impact your driving range within the first few years of ownership, especially when charging and operation best practices are followed.
- Ford's Commitment: At Hoffman Ford, we stand behind the quality and performance of our vehicles. Many Ford EVs come with generous battery warranties, providing you with peace of mind.
Remember: Proper charging habits can significantly impact your battery's lifespan. Refer to your Ford EV owner's manual for specific recommendations on maximizing battery health.
How Long Do EVs Last?
The answer? A long time! With proper care and maintenance, your Ford EV can last just as long as a traditional gasoline-powered vehicle. The electric drivetrain requires minimal maintenance compared to a gasoline engine, potentially saving you money on servicing in the long run. Furthermore, advancements in battery technology and the durability of EV components contribute to a longer overall vehicle lifespan.
