BCA’s Battery Health Grading gives an at-a-glance view of an EV’s traction battery condition. Each vehicle is given a grading from A-E, accompanied by the numbered score of an Aviloo battery ‘Flash Test’, an analysis tool for battery health determination and battery defect detection for used EVs.
The manufacturer independent test is carried out by connecting the Aviloo test box to the on-board diagnostics (OBD) interface of each vehicle. This, says BCA, provides a test report showing the traction battery’s remaining capacity in the form of a score between 0 and 100 and displaying ‘red flags’ in case of faulty battery modules.
The BCA Battery Health Grading is displayed in a quick reference format on the vehicle detail page, on vehicle search results and on the Live Bidding screens.
Buyers can now determine the health of an EV’s traction battery, allowing for confident, fast-paced, informed decisions at auction, said BCA.
BCA’s chief operating officer, Stuart Pearson, said: “EV volumes in our online auctions are growing significantly year on year and we continue to refine the remarketing process in support of this sector. Thanks to our continued investment in infrastructure and supporting services, our customers remain best placed when it comes to selling or buying used electric vehicles.”
