Why Summer Heat Matters for EVs
Battery Stress: Lithium-ion batteries degrade faster in high ambient temperatures (above 35–40°C).
Range Reduction: Excessive AC use and thermal load can cut effective driving range.
Tyre & Cooling Systems: Heat impacts tyre pressure and strains cooling systems, affecting safety and efficiency.

| Challenge | Recommended Practice | Why It Helps |
|---|---|---|
| Battery Overheating | Keep charge between 20–80%, avoid prolonged 100% charging | Reduces thermal stress and long-term degradation |
| Direct Sun Exposure | Park in shade or covered areas | Prevents battery and cabin overheating |
| Charging in Heat | Charge during cooler nighttime hours | Minimizes strain on battery cooling systems |
| Cabin Cooling | Use preconditioning before driving | Cuts battery load during peak AC use |
| Tyre Pressure Fluctuations | Check and adjust regularly | Prevents overinflation/underinflation risks |
| Fast Charging | Avoid repeated DC fast charging in peak afternoon heat | Protects battery from thermal load |
