2 Answers
Ora Good Cat's battery does not have a lifetime warranty. The warranty period for the power battery pack assembly, drive motor, and motor controller of the Ora Good Cat is 8 years or 150,000 kilometers. According to Ora's official after-sales service, Ora provides a quality guarantee for products within the warranty period and offers free repair or replacement services for faulty parts during the warranty period. The details are as follows: The three-guarantee validity period for Ora iQ, Black/White/Good Cat vehicles is 2 years or 50,000 kilometers, whichever comes first. The warranty period for Ora iQ and Black/White Cat vehicles is 3 years or 120,000 kilometers, while the warranty period for the Ora Good Cat is 4 years or 150,000 kilometers, whichever comes first. The warranty period for the iQ power battery pack assembly is 8 years or 150,000 kilometers, and the warranty period for the drive motor and motor controller is 8 years or 120,000 kilometers, whichever comes first. In terms of power: The total power of the equipped motor is 105 kilowatts, and the total torque is 210 Newton-meters. The front suspension uses a MacPherson independent suspension, and the rear suspension uses a torsion beam non-independent suspension.
While researching electric vehicle policies, I found that the Ora Good Cat's battery doesn't come with a lifetime warranty. Typically, it offers an 8-year or 150,000-kilometer warranty, whichever comes first. This policy is quite common in the industry because batteries naturally degrade over time—for example, their capacity diminishes with increased charge-discharge cycles, making a lifetime warranty unrealistic and likely to drive up vehicle prices. I recommend that owners regularly check maintenance records and avoid deep discharges to extend battery life. If unsure, it's best to directly contact the 4S dealership to check warranty terms or review the purchase contract details rather than relying solely on advertising claims. Pay attention to charging habits during daily driving, such as avoiding charging only when the battery is nearly depleted, as this helps maintain battery health. Overall, the standard 8-year warranty seems sufficient for everyday use, and addressing any issues early can prevent bigger headaches.
