Study: Aggressive Acceleration Good for Battery Life

[TexasBob]

This seems worth posting. Study out of Stanford says that occasional hard acceleration is good for battery life. So the occasional 0-XX test next to the guy in the noisy poj Dodge is just being a good car owner. It's science.

"Occasional"?

 

[Dark-Fx]

Oh, occasional. No wonder my batteries seem to suffer.

 

[thrill]

My EVs should last forever.

The way I drive for battery life, according to this study.

Equivalent to an "Italian Tune Up"?

 

[UnsungZero_OldTimeAdMan]

Well damn... It's actually good to be bad?!

 

[Rivian Owner]

Officer i was only conditioning my batteries!

I just read a Car and Driver review / road test on the R1T Tri motor. The acceleration numbers make me think we need to bring back the 0-100-0 test that the Cobra made famous.

Any volunteers? (It's good for your battery!)

Yeah, I'll keeping a copy of the article to show in court. "See, Your Honor, I'm did it to help the environment. It was selfless, really."

Aggressive acceleration- it does a body good.

 

[blturner]

I'm good in this department. I have the reduced tire life to prove it!

 

[AndreC]

Fuuuuuuuk Yeeeeaaahh!!
My battery is gonna last FOREVER.

...Now my tires, that's another thing.

 

[John G.]

Can't wait to tell my wife.

 

[Windblade]

And then there are the tires... probably not as good for them
