I drive a Ford Mustang Mach-e extended range, which has a 96kWH battery but advertises 88kWH “usable”. This is presumably Ford’s way of managing battery degradation over time, since the car will presumably always make 88kWH available even as the total capacity erodes.
My question is how I should treat this in the assumptions for ABRP. It currently defaults to 2% battery degradation, and I imagine that will rise as the car ages. Given Ford’s approach, shouldn’t the battery degradation be locked at zero?
I don’t mind manually managing that setting, but I’d like to be sure I’m not misunderstanding.
