What is the AVILOO Battery Test?

AVILOO is the globally recognised standard for independent EV battery health certification. It is used by manufacturers, dealers, insurers and fleet operators across Europe and Australia to objectively measure and certify battery condition.

The AVILOO Flash Test connects to the vehicle OBD port and uses a proprietary algorithm — trained on millions of real-world EV data points — to calculate a precise State of Health (SoH) percentage. This is the same metric vehicle manufacturers use internally, now available as an independent third-party certificate.

Unlike a simple OBD code read, AVILOO analyses cell voltage balance, thermal data, BMS status and charge/discharge characteristics to produce a result that reflects true battery condition.

EV Battery Degradation & Lifespan Explained

State of Health (SoH) is the definitive measure of how much usable battery capacity remains compared to when the vehicle was new. It directly determines real-world range — a car showing 80% SoH has lost 20% of its original range, potentially 60–80km less per charge.

In Australia's hot climate, EV battery degradation can progress faster than manufacturer estimates. Most EVs retain 80–90% SoH after 5 years under normal use, but vehicles that have been charged heavily on DC fast chargers, parked in heat, or heavily used can show significantly lower numbers.

Without an AVILOO test, this degradation is completely invisible. The car may drive normally and show a full charge bar — yet deliver far less range than when it was new.

💡 How long do EV batteries last in Australia? Most manufacturers warrant the battery to 70% SoH for 8 years or 160,000km. An AVILOO test tells you exactly where the battery sits today — and whether a warranty claim may be valid before your warranty expires.

EV Battery Test Before Buying — Why It Matters

A used EV with hidden battery degradation can cost $15,000–$40,000 in replacement costs. A $385 AVILOO inspection is cheap insurance.

Invisible Risk

Hidden Battery Degradation

A used EV can look and drive perfectly while its battery has lost 20–30% capacity. A standard visual inspection or test drive cannot detect this. Only an AVILOO battery health check can.

Financial Risk

EV Battery Replacement Cost Australia

EV battery replacement in Australia typically costs $15,000–$40,000 depending on vehicle make and battery size. Knowing the battery SoH before purchase gives you real negotiating power — or a reason to walk away.

Often Misrepresented

Range Claims vs Reality

Many sellers quote the vehicle displayed range without knowing the battery actual SoH. A 2019 Nissan Leaf rated at 270km WLTP may only deliver 200km in real conditions. Our AVILOO test documents the real number.

End-of-Warranty Battery Check Sydney

Most EV manufacturers warrant the battery to retain at least 70–80% SoH for 8 years or 160,000km. If your vehicle is approaching this threshold, an AVILOO inspection before the warranty expires gives you documented evidence to lodge a claim.

Do not let the warranty expire without checking. If the battery has degraded below the manufacturer threshold, you may be entitled to a full replacement at no cost.

EV Battery Inspection — Frequently Asked Questions

Yes — it is one of the most important checks you can do before buying a used EV. Battery degradation is completely invisible from a visual inspection or test drive. A used EV with 80% SoH has lost 20% of its original range, potentially 50–80km less per charge. An AVILOO battery health check before buying gives you documented evidence of the battery true condition and real leverage to negotiate the price down.
The only reliable way to check EV battery health is with a specialist tool like the AVILOO Flash Test. Checking the car own battery display or doing a test drive does not reveal true State of Health. Only AVILOO provides an independent certified report accepted by dealers, insurers and manufacturers. For used EV purchases in Sydney, our mobile AVILOO service comes to the vehicle location — you do not need to transport the car anywhere.
The AVILOO Flash Test connects to the vehicle OBD port and takes approximately 15 minutes. It reads hundreds of battery parameters — cell voltages, temperature, BMS data, charge history — and runs them through AVILOO proprietary algorithm to calculate a precise State of Health percentage. The result is an official, globally recognised certificate that documents the battery condition independently from the manufacturer or dealer.
EV battery replacement in Australia typically costs $15,000–$40,000 depending on the vehicle. Tesla Model 3 replacements range around $20,000–$30,000. Nissan Leaf batteries cost $10,000–$20,000. Hyundai Ioniq 5 and Kia EV6 replacements can exceed $30,000. A $385 AVILOO battery health inspection is one of the highest-return checks you can do before purchasing a used EV.
Yes. The official AVILOO certificate is an independent third-party document that provides documented evidence of your battery State of Health. If the SoH has fallen below the manufacturer warranty threshold (typically 70–80% depending on brand), the certificate supports your claim for a warranty replacement. Book before your warranty period ends to ensure you have this evidence in time.
AVILOO supports a wide range of EVs available in Australia including Tesla (Model 3, Y, S, X), Hyundai (Ioniq, Ioniq 5, Ioniq 6, Kona EV), Kia (EV6, Niro EV), BMW (i3, iX), Nissan Leaf, BYD (Atto 3, Seal), MG ZS EV, Renault Zoe and many others. When you book, provide vehicle make and model and we confirm compatibility before the inspection day at no charge.
Most EV batteries retain 80–90% SoH after 5 years or 100,000km under normal use. In Australia hot climate, degradation can be faster than European averages — heat is the primary enemy of lithium-ion batteries. Frequent DC fast charging, lack of thermal management, and charging to 100% regularly also accelerate degradation. An AVILOO test gives you the exact current SoH, not an estimate based on age or kilometres.
