This poll is similar to a couple previous polls but it's focused on the Gen 2 DM Standard which uses LFP battery chemistry (and is equiped with Goodyear OEM 33" tires). The goal is to measure efficiency (in miles per kWh [MPK]) while cruising at 60 MPH on flat terrain at approximately 60°F (no...
Does anyone know if Rivian will keep the LFP battery on the 2026? I know that EPA doc was released recently, but I wasn’t able to full digest its content yet. LMK if you know.
This is another phenomenal EE video, breaking down the battery chemistry and internal reactions.
For those who want a quick synopsis:
Multiple studies do demonstrate that *generally* DCFC fast charging does degrade battery chemistry faster than slower charging. HOWEVER, the significance is...
