Is the Battery Still Under Warranty After Transferring Ownership of an Electric Vehicle?
1 Answers
After transferring ownership of an electric vehicle, the battery can still enjoy the warranty policy, and there is no requirement for the first owner. Below is relevant information about the battery: The battery cannot be charged at any time: Lead-acid batteries are not lithium batteries and cannot be charged immediately after use. The lifespan of a lead-acid battery is calculated by the number of charge-discharge cycles. The battery is most afraid of being depleted; keeping it fully charged can extend its lifespan. Avoid overcharging the battery: Overcharging generates a large amount of gas that erodes the plates, accelerating the shedding of active material and shortening the battery's lifespan. Overcharging also speeds up water loss, leading to dried-up electrolyte, increased battery temperature, thermal runaway, plate expansion, and casing deformation. Avoid deep discharging the battery: Frequent deep discharging can soften the battery plates and reduce lifespan. Prevent high-current discharge by using pedal assistance when starting, climbing hills, or driving against the wind. Avoid prolonged discharge and do not frequently drive until the battery is completely depleted. Charge the battery when the power level drops to half.
