However, the performance of an EV relies heavily on its battery, which is susceptible to degradation over time. The EV 80% rule refers to designing the battery capacity of electric vehicles to be around 80% of its maximum capacity to achieve optimal performance and lifespan. Why is 80% battery capacity the optimal choice?
