    I've got a Honda insight hybrid, 23 years old and still running well. Battery pack failed at about 10 years but because the technology is so old you can rebuild the battery yourself with spare sticks at £20 a piece....................as long as you know what you are doing and are careful very basic electronics!
    You need a degree in electronics for the newer battery's though!!

    I personally only buy cars that are 15 years old and often hold on to them for 10 years...
    WHY are you saying that cars only last 12 years?
    My last car was a 1990 and had it for many years...

    • @carsimply
      @carsimply  6 місяців тому

      Yes I was making the point that:
      Since the average car on American roads is 12.5 years old, Electric Car batteries last a relatively long time (which is 10 to 15 years before battery degradation potentially becomes an issue)
      And also, this video is talking about Electric Vehicles not Gasoline Cars...
      Anyways Thanks for leaving a comment!

      Is maintenance cost high to keep 15 years old car running ? How much % money do you prepare to pay for the replacement parts compare to initial investment to buy the car itself?

      I only paid 5k for my car 7 + years ago and while I have just done all the brakes it's no different to when the original owner did the brakes at 110k kms and my car is now at 240k kms and ready for the next 130k kms and is like new.
      The cost to keep it going is no different to normal maintaining any car...

    I think by 2030, many advanced batteries will last 20 years and more without adhering to battery charging csre.
    Can't wait. I mean, csn wait five or six years but can't wait to own longer-lived BEVs.

    Many older cars should have a 100% charge once per month; to help keep the cells in balance - I always do this at granny charger speeds (2.5-3KW), rather than the full 7KW home charger.
    Slower charging does mean more wasted power, but it also reduces the heat stress put on the battery.
    My EV is 7.5 years old, but the battery is still like new, with a battery state of health of 96.8%, and has only lost 0.9KWH of capacity.

      Actual range comes down to driving style and road conditions; which is why there is a huge disparity between the WTLP and real life ranges; I also get or sometimes exceed, the original range claims in my 7.5 y/o car, and the apps I use show the battery has only lost 0.9KWh over that time (96.8% SOH)

    Look other places for information, some of this is good, but some is misleading / wrong. Like the "J plug" - that's not a proper term for the connector, "J" numbers like J1772, J3400, and J3068 which are other EV plugs used. Plenty of other "J" connectors that are not for an EV but simply standards for a particular connector size / shape / and have definitions for what their pins are used for.

    Since the ideal range of battery use and charging is said to be within 20 to 80% how do we stop charging during overnight charging when it achieves 80%?

    • @carsimply
      @carsimply  2 місяці тому +2

      Hi Muhammad, great question!
      Whether you can set a max charge for your EV depends on two main things:
      1. Your Car:
      Newer cars often let you set a max charge level right on the screen or through an app.
      Older cars might not have this feature, but some can be updated.
      2. Your Charger:
      Smart chargers are like fancy chargers that let you set a max charge, no matter what car you have.
      You can usually control them with an app or the charger itself.
      Public chargers are more basic and usually charge your car to 100%. So, it's best if your car can set its own limit.
      Sorry for the late response, I hope this helps!

    That’s fine if it’s a single-owner. No car is. If you run over something, the battery pack could be ruined, not covered under warranty ($50k, acc to Canadian stats). Thermal runaway, brake rusting, slave labor used in battery production, extensive ecological costs during production, pricing vs ICE cars, infrastructure issues, …. Other than that, they’re great.
