Mobile EV Battery Testing Across Melbourne
The high-voltage battery is the most expensive part of an electric car, and its condition is hard to judge from a test drive or the range on the dash. An independent EV battery health check tells you how much of the battery's original capacity is left before you commit.
RideCheck provides mobile EV battery testing in Melbourne using AVILOO battery diagnostics. Our technician connects the AVILOO tester to the car's diagnostic port at the seller's home, your workplace or the dealership, and the data is analysed to produce an independent State of Health (SoH) result and battery certificate.
Unlike the car's own readout, AVILOO's result doesn't rely only on what the vehicle reports about itself. It's useful whether you're buying a used EV, selling one and want to prove the battery's condition, or managing a fleet.
Your AVILOO battery test covers
- State of Health (SoH) as a percentage of original capacity
- Comparison with similar vehicles of the same model
- Battery management system and cell checks
- Battery-related fault codes and warnings
- A battery certificate you can share with buyers
Suits most EVs and plug-in hybrids, including Tesla, BYD, MG, Hyundai, Kia, Polestar and more. Check your model when you book.

Detailed, specific and honest. As an interstate buyer, Dion put my mind at ease with his post inspection report. Even though the vehicle had electronic issues, he offered to come back once fixed and complete the inspection for no extra cost. I highly recommend this business for peace of mind. For a small price to pay, you can rest assured you are making the right financial decision.

We were extremely impressed by the prompt and efficient service provided by Dion. He booked the inspection with the dealer very quickly, and we were provided with an extensive and detailed report surprisingly fast after it was complete. We highly recommend using RideCheck

Dion was AMAZING! I can't recommend him enough. He was responsive, thorough and transparent throughout the whole inspection process. I felt I was in very reliable hands and confidently purchased my car based on his detailed report and our follow up phone conversation. Thanks again for your help Dion!

Fantastic and prompt service from Dion, he was able to inspect the car the following day. The Inspection report along with the provided photos and videos are clear and thorough. The follow up phone call from Dion to discuss the findings was greatly appreciated and assisted in the process.

EV battery guide
Why Test an EV Battery Before You Buy or Sell?
Like a phone battery, an EV battery loses capacity over time. How fast depends on age, kilometres, climate and charging habits, so two cars of the same model and year can have very different batteries. A test turns that unknown into a number.
Dashboard readout vs AVILOO battery test
The car can tell you something about its battery, but it isn't an independent assessment.
| Car's own readout | RideCheck AVILOO test | |
|---|---|---|
| Who produces it | The vehicle's own systems | An independent diagnostic system, run by our technician |
| What you see | Estimated range or a health figure, if the car shows one at all | State of Health (SoH) as a percentage, with a benchmark against similar vehicles |
| Faults and cells | Warning lights only | Battery fault codes, cell and battery management checks |
| Proof for a sale | Nothing to hand over | An AVILOO battery certificate you can share or attach to a listing |
Who books an EV battery test in Melbourne?
Battery testing helps on both sides of a sale.
Buyers
Know the battery's real condition before you pay. Replacing an EV battery out of warranty can be one of the most expensive repairs a car can need, so a low SoH is worth knowing about before you negotiate.
Sellers and owners
A documented battery result answers the first question most EV buyers ask. Share your certificate with buyers to build trust and back up your asking price.
Dealers and fleets
Test incoming stock or fleet vehicles on site across Melbourne. Contact us about testing multiple vehicles in one visit.

How much does an EV battery test cost in Melbourne?
RideCheck's standalone AVILOO EV Battery Health Test is $249. If you're buying, our Premium EV Inspection includes the battery test plus a full pre-purchase inspection for $489.
Is there a travel fee for mobile EV battery testing?
A travel fee may apply to some areas. We'll confirm any fee with you before your booking is finalised.
What is an AVILOO battery test?
AVILOO is an independent EV battery diagnostic system. Our technician connects the AVILOO tester to the car's diagnostic port, and the data is analysed to give an independent State of Health (SoH) result and a battery health certificate.
How long does an EV battery health check take?
The AVILOO battery test takes around 15–20 minutes on site, and results are typically available shortly after the test.
What does State of Health (SoH) mean?
State of Health is the percentage of the battery's original usable capacity that remains. A lower SoH generally means less range than the car had when new.
Is the AVILOO test more reliable than the car's own battery readout?
The car's own readout comes from the vehicle's systems and isn't an independent assessment. AVILOO analyses the battery data independently and compares the result with similar vehicles, so you get a figure you can trust and share.
Can you test a Tesla battery?
Yes. AVILOO works with most EVs and plug-in hybrids sold in Australia, including Tesla, BYD, MG, Hyundai, Kia and Polestar. Let us know the make, model and year when you book and we'll confirm compatibility.
Do you come to me for the battery test?
Yes. Our EV battery testing is mobile across Melbourne metro. We test at your home, workplace, the seller's address or the dealership.
Can I get a battery test without a full inspection?
Yes. The $249 EV Battery Health Test is a standalone service. If you're buying, we recommend the Premium EV Inspection, as a battery test doesn't check the rest of the car.
I'm selling my EV. Can a battery test help?
Yes. An AVILOO battery certificate gives buyers documented evidence of the battery's condition, which can build trust and help support your asking price.
Does the battery test damage or modify the car?
No. The test connects through the car's diagnostic port and makes no modifications to the vehicle.
