# VoltChek

> VoltChek is a free EV battery health checker. It estimates a used or owned electric vehicle's battery State of Health (SoH) and remaining range from make, model, battery variant, year, and mileage, using real-world degradation curves built from fleet data and community-contributed battery readings. It covers 55+ EV models across 18 brands including Tesla, Hyundai, Kia, BMW, Volkswagen, Nissan, Mercedes, Polestar, BYD, and MG.

Key facts about the data:
- Degradation curves are interpolated from multiple real-world data points per model (5,000–200,000 km), differentiated by battery chemistry and thermal management.
- Sources include Geotab 2026 fleet data, Recurrent Auto, Tesla Impact Report, and EV Database real-world consumption figures.
- Range estimates use per-model real-world efficiency (Wh/km), not lab WLTP/EPA numbers.
- Manufacturer battery warranty terms (years, km, SoH threshold) are included per model.
