How Much Range Do EVs Lose After 5 Years? Data Reveals Surprising Winners

"Roll up to a tailgate in 2025 and your five-year-old EV still reads 280 miles on the dash - no spring in your step lost". Today's mainstream packs fade only 1.8% - about a 9% total drop in five years - thanks to liquid cooling, smarter BMS balancing and tougher cell chemistries. How is your battery range after 5 years? Find your car below. Not everyone has kept up in this great levelling, though. Let's talk about the winners and losers. Back in EV's early days, five-year retention ranged from under 70% for early Leafs to over 90% on rare liquid-cooled prototypes. Now, the top 10 mainstream EVs all cluster between 87% and 94%. Geotab's analysis of 5,000+ EVs nails average fade at 1.8% - down from 2.3% half a decade ago. That uniformity isn't magic; it's the payoff of liquid-cooling loops, advanced cell balancing, and the slow march toward LFP and nickel-rich chemistries. At the summit, Audi's e-tron and the Jaguar I-Pace boast midpoints above 92%, proof that premium packs and active thermal management pay dividends. Tesla's Model 3, Ford's Mach-E and VW's ID.4 aren't far behind - hovering near 91–92% retention. Entry-level contenders like the Bolt EV and Kona Electric still muster around 89–90%, a solid showing given their price points. Contrast that with the Worst 10: early Leafs, i-MiEVs and first-gen conversions now languish in the mid-70s to low-80s, victims of air-cooled packs and minimal cell-monitoring. Expect that second-hand EV to have lost a good deal of its battery range; don't let the salesman argue that the battery holds its original range. Veteran EV owners treat charging like pit stops: maintain State of Charge between 20–80%, lean on Level 2 overnight, and dodge DC-fast-charge binges. That routine can reclaim 2–3% pack health over five years - enough to claw back 10–20 miles on your daily commute. Nissan's warranty-guaranteeing 80% capacity at five years - sets the floor; real-world LeafSpy data often show high-80s retention in mild climates. With the big thermal fixes in place, the next frontier is marginal: who resists 120 °F summer blasts? Which chemistry outlives the others at decade-old mileages? And how much will solid-state and silicon-enhanced cells narrow that remaining 1–2% gap? Related: 5 Game-Changing Batteries That Will Change Your Life Battery fade has gone from horror story to resolved footnote. Mainstream EVs now play in a tight pack - over 90% range left after five years - while yesterday's laggards fall far behind. When you shop your next Leaf, Bolt, Mach-E or Model 3, trust the data: charge smart, drive hard and let real-world numbers - not fear-mongering headlines - steer your choice.

2026 Cadillac Optiq Gets Cheaper and More Powerful for 2026

Cadillac's push into the electric era started with the Lyriq, but it's the smaller Optiq that's shaping up to be the brand's most approachable EV. Positioned as the most compact and affordable electric vehicle in the Cadillac lineup, the Optiq already offers a sharp design, solid range, and a more premium feel than most compact electric crossovers. For 2026, the Optiq receives a host of updates, including more powerful powertrains and increased charging access, but the biggest headline is a surprising one: it's getting cheaper. According to dealer order guides accessed by CarsDirect, Cadillac is trimming thousands off the Optiq's sticker, making its most attainable EV even more competitive against rivals from Audi, BMW, and Tesla. For the 2026 model year, Cadillac is slashing $1,995 off the price of every Optiq trim except the high-performance V variant. That puts the base Optiq RWD at just $50,990, a 3.8% drop from the 2025 model's $52,895 MSRP. The Sport trim follows suit at $51,500, while Premium Luxury and Premium Sport drop to $53,100 and $53,600, respectively. Apart from being a better deal in isolation, the price cut also makes the Optiq more competitive against similarly sized rivals like the Audi Q4 e-tron. It's worth noting that the Audi starts at $49,800 with less power and fewer standard features. These price cuts come as part of a broader strategy: Cadillac has reconfigured the powertrain offerings, moving the base model to a single-motor RWD layout. We just didn't expect the price cut across the range. The 2026 Optiq RWD makes 315 horsepower and 332 lb-ft of torque, outgunning the 2025 AWD model's 300 hp. For buyers wanting more, the 2026 AWD variant gets a massive upgrade, now making 440 hp and 498 lb-ft – up 140 hp and 144 lb-ft from last year. All 2026 models continue using an 85-kWh battery, good for around 300 miles of range, depending on the drivetrain. DC fast charging enables 79 miles of range in 10 minutes, and a new NACS plug means Optiq drivers can now access Tesla's Supercharger network. A new Vibrant White Tricoat replaces the outgoing white paint option, but otherwise, the exterior design remains unchanged. Production of the 2026 Optiq begins August 25, with order books opening later this month. If you've been waiting for a luxury EV that doesn't break the bank, this could be Cadillac's strongest pitch yet. Copyright 2025 The Arena Group, Inc. All Rights Reserved.
