Description:
Happy New Year! 🎉
In this video, I’m doing my 2-year battery degradation test with my VW ID.7, repeating the exact same test method I used when the car was new and after the first year.
🔋 I charge to 100%, then drive at a constant 113 km/h (110 km/h GPS) to minimize heat losses and get a realistic picture of usable battery capacity.
❄️ Winter conditions, preheated battery, identical setup – all for a fair comparison.
After the drive, I calculate the usable kWh, compare it to year 1 and year 0, and then continue with a DC fast charging test starting at 7% SoC to see if charging performance has changed after 2 years and a recent software update (5.6.3).
📉 Result: Only ~0.33% difference – effectively no usable capacity loss after 2 years.
I also talk about:
Winter driving conditions
Infotainment & software quirks
Life without We Connect Plus
Real-world charging performance
If you care about long-term EV ownership, battery health, and repeatable real-world testing, this video will give you solid data.
