Electric cars are seeing a strong demand worldwide. Customers who are suffering from rising fuel prices are now showing maximum support to electric vehicles. But one person has done something that has shown that exactly why it is beneficial to buy EVs. Let's learn more about this.

Hyundai Ioniq 5 will now be known not only for its style and range but also for its battery. A man named Le Young-Hyum, who lives in South Korea, has driven his electric car about 5.8 lakh kilometers. This distance does not even cross the taxi. In particular, even after this trip, the car's battery has been found to be 87.7% healthy.

Whenever there is talk about EV, the first question is, how long will the battery last? But after the experience of Lee, that fear has ended.

That's so much km car daily

Le Young-Humor is a business salesman and he was traveling on an average of 586 kilometers per day. He has completed the journey of 5.80 lakh km in approximately 2 years and 9 months. The most important thing is that even after crossing so long, he did not find any problem in the car's battery, motor or electric system.

Fast charging is often said to cause rapid battery damage, but Lee's experience has proved that this is wrong. They did most of the car's charging from the fast charging station and the battery performance was still good.

Hyundai-kia became surprised

When the Hyundai-Kia research team learned about the car, they changed the car's battery and motor for research without any charge. During the testing, it was found that the battery position remained at 87.7% even after crossing the distance of 5.80 lakh km. This figure is special because such a mileage is seen only in taxi or commercial vehicles.

Saving of millions of rupees

If any other person had cut the same gap in a petrol car like Hyundai Tude, he would have had to spend about Rs 48.56 lakh on petrol. So, this journey with IonIQ 5 was completed only at Rs 30.36 lakh. That means Rs 18.2 lakh was saved directly. EV has not only fuel but also the cost of maintenance. In the petrol car, during this distance, the oil will have to be replaced 66 times, the break fluid 13 times, the spark plug 8 times and the transmission oil 11 times. This was not needed in ionic 5. Only General Service and some conjubbles were changed. This also means an additional savings of around Rs 7 lakh.
