By Staff Writer January 22, 2025

To give potential buyers confidence in their purchase decision, Autotrader,on Jan. 20 announced the availability of EV battery health scores on its used electric vehicle listings, giving shoppers a fuller picture of the battery’s performance, including usable range, before they buy.

“Used EVs are the best kept secret in car buying since they offer cost savings, energy efficiency, government incentives, newer technology and more,” said Brian Moody, executive editor for Autotrader. “Before you buy, make sure you have information on the vehicle’s battery health. Just like your mobile phone or laptop battery, EV batteries can degrade over time, so understanding its performance and how it was cared for will help drivers understand when or if a used EV’s battery needs to be replaced.”
