HV BATTERY SYSTEM
Temperature Limits
Battery pack and vehicle can operate
safely in limits from 0°C to 50°C.
Hv Battery Life & Maintenance
This Vehicle comes with a battery life of
eight years or 160,000km warranty for the
battery, whichever is earlier. Regular serv-
ice of the vehicle and charging protocol to
be followed to maximize the battery life.
Energy Information
The vehicle battery pack has a maximum
energy of 40.5kWh. Energy retention ca-
pacity deteriorates over several cycles of
usage and hence range deterioration hap-
pens overtime.
This decrease in range during the end of
life of battery is expected and is not con-
sidered as a malfunction of the battery
pack. During these conditions, it is recom-
mended to contact an authorized service
center for inspection.
Brake Energy Recovery System
The vehicle features energy regeneration
system, which regenerates expended en-
ergy during coasting or braking during the
drive. This system allows the battery to be
recharged under the above mentioned
conditions.
Please note, the regeneration system
does not fully recharge the battery, it only
provides a chance to recover a portion of
energy that would be lost during braking.
When you release the accelerator or press
the brake pedal, energy flows from wheels
to high voltage battery, thereby charging it.
Regeneration is done by converting driv-
ing force (kinetic energy) into electrical en-
ergy that is stored in the Li-ion battery
while the vehicle is decelerating or being
driven downhill. This is called regenerative
braking
Heavily Discharged High Voltage
System
In the case of a heavily discharged HV
battery, there is a chance that the low volt-
age battery is discharged as well. In this
case, please contact your nearest TATA
MOTORS EV service centre for further as-
sistance. Do not try to jump start the vehi-
cle or tow the vehicle without guidance
from the service assistant.
Heated High Voltage Battery
In such a condition, the battery has safety
logics to limit the performance or discon-
nect by itself with prior warning. The vehi-
cle should be stopped and allowed to cool
down and TATA MOTORS EV service cen-
tre must be contacted for rectification.
NOTE
To control the battery temperature of
the high voltage battery the air condi-
tioner is used to cool down the battery
and may switch on automatically with-
out request from control panel which
may generate noise from operation of
the air conditioner compressor and
cooling fan.
