🍂 Stay one step ahead of the seasonal switch in driving conditions with these top tips! 🍂 1️⃣ With the sun getting lower, glare is more likely to be a problem at this time of year. Ensure that you clean your windscreen both inside and out to remove the hazy film that accumulates and can obstruct your view. It's crucial to replace your wiper blades if they are worn or damaged, especially during the rainy season, to guarantee they work effectively. And don't forget to slow down if you’re dazzled. ✋🏼 2️⃣ Typically, batteries have a lifespan of around five years. Signs of a battery struggling suggest it could fail in the colder months. It's advisable to replace it now to prevent inconvenience later. 🔋 3️⃣ During any car check this autumn, it's crucial to ensure that your fluids are topped up. To avoid any inconvenience on a frosty morning, keep your antifreeze at the right level. If you're uncertain about the best antifreeze for your vehicle, it's advisable to consult a garage. ❄️ 4️⃣ Ground frost reduces road traction, so reduce your speed and avoid sudden braking or acceleration. Meanwhile, frost on the windscreen impairs visibility and must be removed. To ensure full visibility, keep de-icer in your vehicle and allocate extra time in the morning for clearing. 🚗 5️⃣ When was the last time you used your fog lights? Do you know where the controls are and the difference between the settings? Be sure to check this before you leave on a foggy morning to ensure you are visible to vehicles at all times. 💡 For car maintenance and safe driving in severe weather, high-quality products are crucial.

🚗 Charging Ahead: Your Monthly EV Facts and Figures 💡 NexDrive Do you know the difference between State of Health (SoH) and State of Charge (SoC)? Understanding the difference between State of Health (SoH) and State of Charge (SoC) is essential, especially when it comes to managing and maintaining battery performance. SoH is all about assessing the overall health and performance of a battery. It indicates how much capacity the battery has lost compared to its original state. For electric and hybrid vehicles, SoH is critical for evaluating range, performance, and safety. On the other hand, SoC signifies the current charge level of the battery, much like a fuel gauge in a vehicle. It provides real-time information on the remaining energy available in the battery and is essential for monitoring and managing the battery's usage. 🚗 🔋Did you know that approximately 50% or more of the vehicle's net worth is tied to the high-voltage (HV) battery alone. Recognising the significance of these high-value components and their eventual replacement, Alliance Automotive Group is committed to ensuring we have the right parts at the right time for our customers. Understanding both SoH and SoC is crucial for effectively managing and maintaining battery performance, especially in the context of electric and hybrid vehicles.
