What does this cover?

The battery warranty guarantees that the high-voltage traction battery will retain at least 70% of its original capacity during the warranty period. If the battery degrades below this level under normal use, the manufacturer will repair or replace it at no cost.

This is separate from the vehicle's general warranty and typically has a longer duration, reflecting the expected lifespan of modern EV batteries.

Warranty terms are indicative. Always confirm with the manufacturer.
