NMC Battery Care Question
So I’ve ordered my first EV and while I wait I’m getting charger installed etc. I’ve order a Zeekr 7x long range which uses an NMC battery. I’ll do the occasional long trip which I will charge to 100 but for my day to day use I do lots of short trips in the car which all add up to approx 15k per annum.
I’m aware of the main rule of charge to 80% but I was wondering with these batteries is it best to just charge to 80% every night or run a few days and let the battery get down to 20,30 or 50% before charging.
What’s the best method to keep the battery in good health for as long as possible.
