Battery health is relevant for so many different aftersales processes for OEMs, including discussions regarding warranty payouts, providing excellent customer service, swapping batteries on time, and more. Given the high costs of batteries, decision processes regarding warranty discussions, swapping decisions and accrual adjustments involve enormous flows of cash and financial risks. Without access to reliable and precise information on battery health, these vital decisions are made based on guesswork or imprecise battery data. In this whitepaper, we discuss the core challenges caused by battery aging, how these affect aftersales departments across the industry, and how battery analytics can help OEMs overcome these challenges.
