The red battery symbol indicates that the 12-volt battery is not charging. This is normal behavior when the drive battery is too low. The car disables 12-volt charging to preserve the drive battery's charge level.

That is one possible meaning. Another is that one of the cooling pumps on the 12V circuit is throwing an error due to a bad ground. That happened to me.

Interesting how much degradation they have. My son ran a 30 kWh version on lease for 5 years, he seldom charged it to 100%, occasionally for the big trip. It would still do 100 miles when it went back at the end of the lease. These cars only stop charging when at 100% so I suspect many of the cars have sat on the driveway at 100% charge most of their lives.

I think you should see if elbimek could replace that one bad cell on the first soul (and cost) , I think you'd get close to your 20kwh target then as all the other cells seemed fairly well balanced, would make for good content too
@ianemery2925 7 ай бұрын
The cell imbalance might be simply a case of the car not being slow charged for a long time; so unable to run it's balancing mode; my 2016 Souls battery has a variance of 0.01v between the highest and lowest cell voltages. When I first bought my Soul, it has been sitting around in a garage workshop for nearly a year, and the cells were all over the place; after letting it balance at home, SOH went from 94.2% to 96.8% over the first couple of weeks. EV Watchdog reports I have 26.1 KWh of battery life at 100% charge; although the car HAS only done ~38,000miles/62,000KM

When my eNiro died on me I turned everything off and waited like a minute or two, then it started moving again, and it was uphill. Went ca. 300 m and died again, so I repeated the procedure and crawled to a fast charger almost 2 km! Don't recommend repeating it, did it only once just to see if it works, but can be useful when you do not have an Ecoflow and run out of juice just before reachung a charger.

red light on the dashboard : 12v battery having a problem, the "key not detected" is the same story.., your 400v battery was empty so it stopped charging the 12v battery and with some electric consumers working the very small 12v was getting almost empty and you were lucky the 12v did not die because then impossible to start the car again (it happened to me)
@iamalittlepepper 7 ай бұрын
Yes unfortunately 12V are still considered consumables like in an ICE car. They last longer than on ICE because there is no starter to crank, only the close the high voltage battery connectors. Later cars like Model 3s a few years ago had started to replace those with LPF, but the problem is those are not standardized so that creates secondary issues of economy of scale.

The second hand value of older EVs is going to be interesting to watch as time goes by. I fear they are going to drop in value quite rapidly as the battery degrades.
@iamalittlepepper 7 ай бұрын
Leafs batteries are starting to be recycled in the States en mass. Also people use the batteries to power their homes even 15kwh can be quite useful to power a house. I started outfit my place with some server rack batteries and new LFP are about 2-3k USD for 5kWh (5kWh fully powers my house for a few days), so harvesting a Soul for 9kUSD or Bjorn's price 70k Nok just for the batteries is cheaper (but more pain in fitting) and you gain by selling the rest of the car for parts to collision / insurance industry. The recycling industry needs input to gear up and the older cars are their solution to the chicken and egg problem, not to mention the politics of rare earth metal and cobalt, which older batteries contain more than newer chemistry. The drop in value and consumer skepticism for the older EVs is a boon for the recycling industry.

Soul EV and Hyundai EVs in the US have a subsequent owner 10 year 100000 mile warranty on EV Drivetrain (including the battery) So they do a little better than the Nissan Leafs for used ownership. However more and more CHAdeMO stations are being decommissioned and Even newer Tesla MagicDocks don't include CHAdeMO. So post-2025 I suspect CHAdeMO vehicles will be nothing more than their original use case (city runabouts aka Street Legal Golf Carts) Very useful as a low maintenance short range vehicle.

If you replace cell that has 3V while others has 3.4 it is probably less 5-10%. I have disassembled LEAF battery that ended in voltage difference 3.0 vs 3.3V and after measuring capacity of each of 96 cells (2 times!) I found that replacing the worst 2 cells I can get 5-6% capacity that was about 7km range more. And it expect that none of other cells will drop voltage faster then others which is expectable. I replaced whole battery from from accident damaged car. There is not so much energy between 3 and 3.4V. If you have one cell 3V and other 3.6 or 3.7 then it could make sense to try to fix the battery. Not in your case. But Voldemort might to try it :)

Stellantis seems to be at the back of the pack in electrification. A lot of it has to do with your use case. If you live in a house with charging and the car consumes say 200wh / km in real life on your favourite routes at the worst conditions. A 50kW battery will last you at least 250km per charge. I think the real life efficiency in your context of the car matters a lot for EV. Even fast charging vs home charging will affect battery degradation with the former degrading faster. So It is best to figure out your life situation, get some hard data and do some modelling.

The Korean companies seem to be unable to build a good reliable battery. How hard can it be to copy a Chinese battery? Or just lease their technology. Almost all recalls are from these Korean companies and it continues year after year🤬.The new ev9 came out with only 220kW peak charging. When all new Chinese cars are coming out with 500kW+. They are in big big trouble😢

just checked my Battery from an 2yo Etron-GT 20tkm. It says SoH 88,4% and it has 78kWh at 100% which would be a degradation to new netto 83,7kWh of 6,8%. Why is the SoH so much worse?
@iamalittlepepper 7 ай бұрын
Heat is the enemy of batteries. Frequent / often DC charging, charging at the extremes eg under 20% and to 100% generates extra heat and probably contribute a lot to the degradation, especially since Etron emphasizes on performance and doesn't use cheap but more stout LFP battery. It would be hard to pin down unless we know how the car is used. The relationship between speed and power consumption is exponential. The more power you consume (eg poor aerodynamics), the more charge cycles you need, the higher the degradation, since there is a finite number of charges until a cell fails. I believe the high end manufacturers (non Tesla) assume buyers of their high performance EVs don't care about degradation only about performance. Once the batteries die, they can afford a new EV. Same situation with say Mercedes S class or Range Rover's air suspensions, they are state of the art and exquisite, but 1st owners rarely need to service them, only future second / third / forth owners, by that time they are nearly the cost of the car.

These are per definition not old cars. The average age of norwegian cars is ~10 yrs. Meaning cars older than average can be described as old(er) cars. They also are supposed to last apx. 18,6 yrs... On another note this is a good video series clearly demonstrating this is junk for most people looking for an fairly average norwegian car. In Norway the average sold car is apx 8 yrs old and costs apx 100.000 nok. There is plenty of vehicles to choose from making 500-1000 km on a fast fill-up at that price. Not even having to worry about extreme costs for a new battery. With many now experiencing -20 to -40 deg. C that even makes this worse. What would this car have managed in real-life conditions right now (no heated garage for instance)? 50 km? 60? For a car that has been on the road for 9 yrs and a few months? WOW!

I know many will disagree, but I'm convinced that EVs should have smaller batteries and range extenders (generator). Home charging is great for commuting, but longer trips relying on public chargers is clearly a nightmare. In 2018, a million drivers ran out of fuel in the uk. Just imagine the workload of assisting even a fifth of that number?

Lol...my wife and I just completed a 14,648km road trip around North America. We visited 19 states and 2 provinces. Did 77 charging sessions...only had minor issues 3 times. The charging network in NA is not perfect but it is adequate. We put 60,000km a year on our EV's and honestly do not have major problems...so either we are extremely lucky (not likely as per my record with buying lottery tickets 😂) or the system is not really as bad as many people want to portray it! 😅 Mike and Ally 🇨🇦 🍁

I can tell you that I have run out of fuel a few times in an ICE car ... but never in my EV. In an EV you know you need to think/plan so you are generally at reduced risk of actually running out, I find. In a fuel car you always expect there will be fuel available nearby ... and just sometimes it isn't!

Whereas Ford had 100+ years of experience yet still came up with the Ecoboost engine which appears to have the poorest life expectancy of any vehicle. ICE cars are different to each other and EVs are different to each other. You can't look at one model and then lump them all together and then use that as evidence.

Insane how these relatively young ev’s are basically written off after like 8 years because of the 30% degradation… I am curious what will happen with the ev’s on the market you see now a lot as Model 3, ID models from Volkswagen and the Koreans. These batteries are bigger so they will degrade less but even if its 30% in 10-15 years they are basically written off.

@@nickdegroot2445 actually the degradation is not that big of a concern...it all depends on use. If you only drive 10 - 30km per day an older EV with a battery that has stabilized at 30% degradation and only gives 80 - 90km of range is more than adequate. We have an Ioniq5, have over 40,000km on the car, no noticeable range loss (I know there is some degradation...) and it will provide us with years of driving. We are shopping for a used EV (Soul, Leaf, etc) and as long as it has 70 - 90 KM of range it will be perfect for us as a go into town car....even if the range degrades further it will still be usable. In any case not sure any if these cars are write offs due to the availability of used batteries at a reasonable cost. In my part of Canada the biggest concern is how long will the body structure last due to the massive amounts of salt that is used on our roads. I suspect that most EV's will rust out before the batteries become unusable....just like an ICE vehicle usually disintegrates before the drive train packs it in. Just my thoughts and observations...

The smaller the battery capacity, the more often you'll have to recharge, so if the battery lasts 1000 cycles, you will achieve that in half the time of a car with double the battery capacity. Also, these air cooled batteries are notorious to have higher degradation. The Leaf more than the Soul though.
