Battery OEM FORD or OEM Volvo
Didn’t even have to replace the battery in that time (11 years).
I\u2019ve owned an S60 T8 for 2 and a half years now. Like others have said Volvo PHEVs deplete the battery first by default before touching the gas engine.
I have been driving a 2023 S60 Recharge for 2 years now. If someone told you it's bad to drive them with the battery depleted, they lied to you.
Depending on the year/model of the car you might need to have the battery "registered" using a special tool after installing it.
Just do it yourself or find an independent shop.
The Ford battery in my Fiesta is as old as car so 10 years but despite still being able to start car it would only charge to 50% of capacity
Sodium ion has about half the volumetric and gravimetric energy density. Li will remain king in the EV space for a long time to come.
Paid charging is problematic mainly because the T8 charges so slow. You'd have to leave your car at a charger for like 5.5 hours to fill the battery.
I had an Volvo XC90 hybrid. The car is ok, but the battery/motor part is garbage. It has a 10kwh battery, but can only drive for 18 miles on battery, the energy efficiency is way low than my model X.
Stock battery lang na mabilis palitan ang naging issue.
