Heavy Duty Vehicles (HDV) | Pack Size & Durability

Battery sizes in heavy vehicles will depend mainly on usage cycle and gross vehicle weight Heavy Duty Battery Durability Durability requirements for Heavy Duty will be considerably higher than for light duty, impacting chemistry, cooling, charging and warranty. High annual distances will require higher level (MCS) charging which will also impact durability. A UN battery durability regulation for both light duty (legislation drafted GTR 22) and heavy duty (proposals being developed under WP 29) is being developed. Heavy Duty battery durability starting point is GTR 22. Key metrics will included:

% of SOCE (State-of Certified Energy) retained

X years of Service (varies by weight category 8-15 years)

Y Mileage (km)

Unit Sales 2023/2030
