SOH Read-Out Report for Electric Cars

The Alternative to the DEKRA Battery Test

Quick and No Vehicle Movement Required

For situations where our Dynamic DEKRA Battery Test cannot be performed—due to space constraints or safety regulations—we offer a fast and practical solution: the Read-Out Report for high-voltage batteries.
This method provides a fast indication of an EV battery’s health without requiring a physical test drive.

Why Choose the Read-Out Report?

  • Non-Intrusive & Fast: No vehicle movement required – get results within minutes.
  • Vehicle Information: Uses real-time data from the vehicle’s Battery Management System (BMS).
  • Enhanced Transparency: for pre-purchase checks, fleet monitoring, and vehicle assessments.
  • Flexible & Scalable: Available as a standalone test or an add-on to the DEKRA Status Report.

How Does It Work?

Unlike the Dynamic DEKRA Battery Test, the Read-Out Report is a static procedure, meaning the vehicle stays in place. It extracts crucial battery insights directly from the BMS, including:
  • Battery Voltage – Understand the current power status.
  • Cell Temperature & Cell Voltage – Key indicators of battery efficiency.
  • State of Charge (SoC) – The available energy level in the battery.
  • State of Health (SoH) – The information of the Battery Management System.
Note: DEKRA does not calculate or alter these values but verifies them whenever possible.

Flexible Service: Standalone or Add-On?

The Read-Out Report can be used either as an addition to the DEKRA condition report or as a standalone service—offering maximum flexibility and transparency.

Compatible with a Wide Range of EVs

The Read-Out Report is already compatible with numerous Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles (PHEVs) and Battery Electric Vehicles (BEVs).
