Ford shared data from 36,000 Mustang Mach-E electric SUVs, showing that their batteries retain an average of 92% health after five years of use. The data, collected from vehicles in the U.S. and Canada, revealed that 95% of the SUVs had between 87% and 97% battery health. Ford's analysis found that even vehicles with over 100,000 miles on the odometer retained more than 91% of their battery capacity, with some exceeding 200,000 miles and still maintaining 88% health. The findings align with industry trends, indicating that modern electric vehicle batteries are more durable than previously thought. Ford recommends managing battery health by avoiding extreme temperatures, using Level 2 charging for daily use, and preconditioning the battery when possible.
