What is a Ford Focus electric battery upgrade?

I’ve read that the Ford Focus is an affordable EV, but that it may need a battery upgrade sooner rather than later. What exactly is a Ford Focus battery upgrade and what does it consist of?

A Ford Focus electric battery upgrade is simply the act of replacing the current battery with a larger battery.
The idea behind this is that you can increase the overall range of the Focus, as well as its power and speed. The size of the battery is what impacts these numbers, although finding one to fit is certainly a challenge.
However, the Ford Focus electric battery upgrade probably isn’t worth the price. A
battery replacement
for the same stock battery is around $14,000 and an upgrade would almost certainly be more than the actual price of the car. Moreover, finding someone to install it would be even more challenging, as it’s highly unlikely that Ford would decline to do the installation.
