VW ID.3 battery health reading sparks used EV debate

Original: Used VW ID.3 buyer sees 100.3% battery health, but owners say the figure can fool shoppers

A used Volkswagen ID.3 buyer reported a battery health reading of 100.3%, suggesting virtually no degradation, but other owners caution that the official diagnostic figure can mislead shoppers. They note the reading reflects a calibration value that can look better than real-world capacity, so it should not be the only check when buying a used electric car.

Why now: Growing used EV sales have buyers scrutinising how reliable battery health diagnostics really are.
