BONUS: EV Battery Health Testing: What's Really Happening Inside Your Pack?

Welcome back to EV News Daily, and welcome to a special bonus edition: an interview today with a fascinating guest.One big question is holding back EV adoption: is this battery any good? My guest today, Nathan Gore-Brown, is helping to establish the standard to answer that question.Nathan brings 30 years of experience across three continents in the automotive world.  Nathan has identified a flaw in the market. Buyers can’t verify the health of used batteries, so they’re hesitating, and that gap is stalling the market. Today he’s talking specifically about Australia and New Zealand, but we can paint those brushstrokes all around the world.In 2025 he founded his new business, Test EV. By bringing independent testing from specialists Aviloo and taking that to Australia and New Zealand, he’s securing partnerships with some of the industry's biggest players, and helping to set the rules for how EVs are valued and sold.He also serves as the Queensland director of the Australian Electric Vehicle Association and has developed national training programs for dealers. His work spans policy, training, fleet decarbonisation, and now the very infrastructure that makes EV purchases trustworthy. I think it’s fair to say Nathan is the expert in replacing guesswork with real data!Find out more: testev.coNathan's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nathan-gore-brown-1403a622?lipi=urn%3Ali%3Apage%3Ad_flagship3_profile_view_base_contact_details%3BldzKJOGCR1mf3osZhSa%2BPA%3D%3D
