Generational, a UK-based electric vehicle (EV) battery diagnostics company, has partnered with Maverick Diagnostics to expand access to EV battery health testing across thousands of automotive workshops in the United Kingdom.
Under the agreement, Generational will supply battery testing kits, fulfil workshop orders, and provide the software platform that powers its battery health assessments, including State of Health (SoH) reports and customer-facing battery health certificates. Maverick Diagnostics will be responsible for marketing the technology and providing educational support to workshops.
The partnership will extend EV battery diagnostic services to approximately 6,000 workshops served by Maverick Diagnostics, enabling independent garages to integrate battery health testing into their service offerings.
The companies said the collaboration aims to improve transparency in the growing used electric vehicle market by providing motorists with reliable information on battery condition through trusted local workshops.
As the UK’s used EV fleet continues to expand, battery condition has become an increasingly important factor influencing vehicle performance, maintenance decisions, and resale value. While industry data indicates that EV batteries generally retain strong performance over time, battery health can vary depending on vehicle age, charging patterns, usage, and maintenance history.
Generational and Maverick Diagnostics are encouraging EV owners to include battery health checks as part of routine vehicle maintenance, including annual servicing, MOT inspections, pre-purchase vehicle assessments, and resale evaluations.
The partnership also supports workshops as electric vehicles enter their second and third ownership cycles, creating new service opportunities for independent repairers while helping consumers better understand battery performance.
Generational said its battery testing solution uses a compact device connected to a vehicle’s On-Board Diagnostics (OBD) port to analyse battery condition and generate a detailed report. The report provides information on the battery’s overall State of Health, including the condition of individual battery cells and remaining capacity compared with the original specification.
The company noted that the service is designed to provide motorists with greater confidence in the condition and expected performance of their electric vehicles while offering workshops a practical tool to support the growing EV market.
Generational’s latest Battery Performance Index, based on more than 8,000 EV battery assessments conducted across the UK, found that the average battery State of Health stands at 95.15%. The study also indicated that although many older and higher-mileage EVs continue to perform well, differences in battery condition increase as vehicles age, reinforcing the need for individual battery health assessments.
The partnership follows Generational’s earlier funding support from the Advanced Propulsion Centre UK, which recognised the company for its contribution to automotive innovation and the UK’s net-zero transition. According to the companies, the collaboration will help bring EV battery diagnostics to a broader network of workshops while supporting greater transparency and confidence in the used electric vehicle market.
