Kia has become the first major manufacturer to roll out cell-level battery passports to give drivers more confidence when switching to electric vehicles.
This breakthrough ensures transparency in EV batteries by providing live, detailed health data for each battery cell.
A battery passport enables live State of Health (SoH) tracking, real-time repair diagnostics, and end-to-end traceability across the battery’s lifecycle. For EV drivers, this leads to benefits such as extended battery life, more affordable maintenance, and a higher level of trust when buying or selling used EVs.
