How fast is a Fiat 500e’s battery degradation?

How many years will a Fiat 500e’s battery last? I love the idea of an electric Fiat, but I’ve also heard that electric car batteries are really expensive. I don’t want to pay a ton of money for repairs and maintenance!

battery will have a slow degradation rate and will typically last for between 10 and 20 years with proper maintenance. Depending on how often you drive your vehicle and how well you keep up with maintenance, you’ll see your Fiat battery degrade at a rate of 0% to 2% per year.
When you do have to replace your Fiat 500e battery, you can expect to pay a minimum of $5,500 for the battery alone. If you want a brand new battery pack, that price skyrockets to about $32,000, making battery replacement as expensive as some new vehicles.
To make sure that you don’t run into this, try to minimize fast charging and, when you can, avoid charging your battery to 100%. This will improve your vehicle’s battery life and stave off those high
