Automakers are increasingly turning to lithium iron phosphate (LFP) batteries for affordable EVs, and packs with that chemistry can benefit from a different charging regimen than that usually used for the currently dominant nickel manganese cobalt (NMC) chemistry. As laid out in a recent Engineering Explained video, automakers are recommending... How often should you charge your EV’s LFP battery?

An EV battery's first charge is more than just symbolic. It could help determine the battery's overall longevity, according to a new study funded by the Toyota Research Institute and published in the scientific journal Joule. First spotted by InsideEVs, the study by Stanford University's SLAC-Stanford Battery Center found that giving lithium-ion...
