EV battery

Electric car's fuel

An EV battery is the rechargeable power source in an electric vehicle, typically a lithium-ion pack storing energy to drive electric motors.

Battery capacity, measured in kilowatt-hours, determines driving range.

The EV battery accounts for much of the vehicle's cost.

Degradation over time reduces range, making battery health a concern for used EV buyers.
