The Switch is a new mobility series by Euronews Next aimed at helping individuals transition to electric vehicles (EVs) amidst the climate crisis. It discusses the impact of fast charging on EV battery lifespan, revealing that recent studies show no significant degradation in battery range for frequently fast-charged Teslas. Modern EVs utilize advanced battery management systems (BMS) and thermal management systems (TMS) to mitigate risks associated with fast charging. Recommendations for minimizing battery degradation include preconditioning batteries, avoiding charging to 100%, and balancing fast with slower charging. Teljes cikk (Euronews.com)
