150,000 km Becomes Ride-Hailing Battery "Death Line" as 177Ah Cells Swell in Batches

A batch of ride-hailing vehicles that have reached 150,000 kilometers is experiencing concentrated battery swelling, leakage, and insulation failures. The affected vehicles are primarily equipped with 177Ah lithium iron phosphate (LFP) cells, with failures clustering between 150,000 and 250,000 km — squarely on the manufacturer's "8 years or 150,000 km" warranty threshold. Ride-hailing vehicles operating approximately 80,000 km annually with 1-2 charges daily are challenging existing battery safety standards and warranty systems.
