Battery report

89% of new capacity

  • Battery & BMS 89
  • Drive units 90
  • Suspension 85

Charging

100 kW peak

10–80% takes about 45 minutes on a charger that can supply 100 kW or more.

Onboard AC charger 6.6 kW — a full night on a 240 V wall unit

Battery replacement

$9,800

Current cost of a replacement pack or module set for this model, fitted. We publish it so you can do the arithmetic before you buy, not after.

8 years / 100,000 miles on the battery — transfers

Running cost

3.5 mi/kWh

Efficiency from the EPA rating and usable battery capacity. At Florida electricity prices that is about $4 per 100 miles of home charging — roughly a third of what a petrol equivalent costs to run.

Service costs are lower too: no oil, no belts, and brake wear is halved by regenerative braking.

Condition

87/100

Seven measured systems, including the battery and the charging hardware. Red-flag items are either corrected before listing or written into the defect log with the price consequence stated.

Honest condition for the mileage — priced accordingly.

Inspector's notes

This is a great second car and a poor only car, and we write that on the listing. Home charging makes it excellent; public charging on this connector makes it tiresome.

Battery at 89% is priced into the asking figure — compare it against the 2020 Niro at 93% before you decide.

Ask for the battery log before you decide

The full test cycle, module deviation, DC curve and measured range go out by email. If the honest answer is that this car is wrong for your commute, that is what you will hear.

Answer within four business hours, from the technician who ran the battery test.

Sample data — brand, telephone, email and address are placeholders until the business record is supplied.
