Abstract:
A vehicle includes a battery health evaluation system. A vehicle battery is electrically loaded upon determining that an ambient temperature equals or exceeds a first temperature. A voltage of the battery is measured during loading. A magnitude of the voltage plateau is determined. The battery is identified as inadequate upon determining that the magnitude of the plateau is less than the target voltage.
