Battery Warranty

8 Year 200,000 KM Battery Warranty Terms & Conditions

The Lepas New Vehicle 8-year/200,000-kilometre Warranty commences on the day your new vehicle is first registered. If you purchase a demonstrator vehicle, the warranty begins when the vehicle is registered by your Lepas Dealer. You are entitled to the balance of the warranty coverage period.

The high-voltage battery supplied with any Lepas vehicle purchased for private use comes with an 8-year/200,000-kilometre warranty (150,000 kilometres for commercial use), whichever occurs first, from the date of delivery to the original purchaser when the vehicle is first registered. Commercial use includes taxi, rideshare, hire, rental, driving school, delivery and courier. If during the warranty period the net residual energy capacity of the high-voltage battery falls below 70% relative to the energy capacity at the time of delivery, as determined by energy capacity measurement testing carried out by an authorised Lepas Dealer, Lepas Australia will either repair the battery, or replace it with a new, reconditioned or remanufactured battery or component so that the battery’s net residual energy capacity is restored so that the energy capacity is at least equal to that of the original high-voltage battery before the failure occurred while taking into consideration other factors, including the age and mileage of the vehicle.

The warranty for the high-voltage battery will not apply if the defect or damage, including the excessive loss of capacity, has resulted from unapproved modification to parts or to vehicle software from original specification, improper use, handling or maintenance of the battery, including from a traffic accident, or if the battery has come into contact with open flames or liquids such as high-pressure water, floods or steam cleaning, or intentionally attempting to increase or reduce the life of the battery, whether by physical or programming means. This also includes failure to follow the instructions applying to the operation, treatment and care of the charging or state of charge of the high-voltage battery described in the Owner’s Manual supplied with the vehicle. Exclusions also apply if the high-voltage battery has been permanently removed or is no longer operated in conjunction with the vehicle.

This high-voltage battery, like all batteries, will experience gradual energy or power loss with time and use. Loss of battery energy or power over time due to or resulting from battery usage is NOT covered under this warranty, except to the extent specified in this warranty.
