Certified by
Offer every buyer a TÜV-certified, OEM-independent battery health report from AVILOO, distributed in the UK & Ireland by MotorCheck. Sell used EVs up to 36% faster, protect your margins, and prove battery condition at the point of sale.
An independent battery certificate turns the biggest objection in used-EV sales ("how healthy is the battery, really?") into a reason to buy from you.
Catch battery defects the car's own management system can miss, before they turn into a comeback, a refund, or a dispute. Battery faults show up in one to two of every hundred tests.
Certified EVs sell up to 36% faster and command £480–£950 more. A test that costs you £35 supports a premium many times that, and shortens days in stock.
An independent, TÜV-certified report (not the manufacturer's own number) answers the question every used-EV buyer is really asking. 57% say they want one before they buy.
Reinsured by Swiss Re, one of the world's largest reinsurers.
Every eligible EV we certify with AVILOO will soon carry an independent warranty that travels with the vehicle. It's the first and only EV battery test in the market backed this way, with genuine financial substance behind it, not just a company's own promise. It's a measure of how reliable the AVILOO result is, and a stronger story you can stand behind at the point of sale.
It's a separate, financially-backed warranty issued alongside the independent AVILOO battery certificate and reinsured by Swiss Re. The certificate records the battery's health on the day of the test; the warranty adds protection if that battery degrades faster than forecast during the cover period. It's the first warranty of its kind built purely on independent measurement data.
No, they're two separate documents. The certificate is independent evidence of the battery's condition at the point of sale, and it's yours to show every buyer. The warranty is an added layer on top that travels with the vehicle, protecting against abnormally fast degradation.
Twelve months or 20,000 km from the date of the AVILOO test, whichever comes first. The period is fixed from the test date and printed on the warranty certificate.
Eligible battery-electric vehicles (BEVs) that pass AVILOO's automatic eligibility check at the time of the test. The vehicle's model also needs to be on AVILOO's coverage list and pass the Flash Test cleanly, and batteries that are already heavily degraded may not qualify. Plug-in hybrids still receive a full AVILOO certificate, but the warranty itself is for BEVs.
Nothing extra. It's included with every eligible AVILOO Flash Test at no additional cost, with no separate product to price up. It simply makes the test you're already running worth more on the forecourt.
During the cover period a second AVILOO Flash Test (a "validation test") checks the battery against its certified threshold. If it has dropped below, the fixed cash payout shown on the warranty certificate is paid, and the cost of that confirming test is refunded. It's assessed and paid by AVILOO directly.
No. The warranty is provided by AVILOO and reinsured by Swiss Re, so your dealership isn't the guarantor. It gives your customers extra confidence while the commitment sits with AVILOO and its reinsurer, not with you.
Yes. The warranty covers eligible vehicles whether the customer buys outright or on PCP or hire purchase, and it travels with the car if it's sold on during the cover period.
A fixed £2,700, paid to the owner if the battery falls below its certified threshold. It's a set cash sum, not a contribution towards a repair, and the validation test is refunded on a confirmed claim.
Within the cover period the owner has a second AVILOO Flash Test and submits the claim directly to AVILOO. If it confirms the battery has dropped below its threshold, AVILOO pays the £2,700 and refunds that test. The claim is handled by AVILOO, not the dealer.
It's issued digitally through AVILOO Connect alongside the test result, not posted or emailed as a separate PDF.
AVILOO is the Austrian-engineered, TÜV-certified battery diagnostic platform distributed in the UK by MotorCheck. A plug-in OBD device captures cell-level data directly from the vehicle, far beyond what the car's own system reports.
Plug-and-play, pre-configured, with an integrated SIM. Ships in 2–5 days. No minimum test volume.
Connects through the standard OBD port. No test drive, no ramp, and no technician training required.
Captures 200+ battery parameters straight from the pack, completely independent of the manufacturer's data.
Results land in your MotorCheck report, as a standalone PDF, or through the API, VIN-tied and ready to share.
Watch how a dealer runs the full battery test on any EV, from plugging in the OBD device to issuing the independent certificate.
The certificate documents the battery's exact state of health on the day the test was run: independent, methodology-backed evidence of condition at the point of sale. A clean report at sale is a documented answer to the question every buyer, lender and ombudsman eventually asks.
A vehicle's built-in battery management system can report a healthy figure while real degradation or a cell fault goes undetected. AVILOO measures the pack directly.
In a real BMW field test, the onboard system reported a healthy state of health, yet AVILOO's independent measurement uncovered cell-level damage the dashboard never showed. That's the gap an independent test closes.
V12 Sports & Classics, one of the UK's leading independent dealerships, built AVILOO certification into their used-EV sales process with MotorCheck, answering the buyer's first question with documented, third-party evidence. The same standard the franchise groups use, deployed by an independent.
V12 spotted the shift early: used-EV buyers want certainty before they commit. So they built independent battery certification into every EV sale.
The result: listings that answer the buyer's first question before it's asked, a measurable uplift in buyer confidence, and a way to stand out in the most competitive segment of the used market without dropping price to compete.
The takeaway for dealers: the certificate does the heavy lifting on trust, the battery question comes off the table, and EVs move faster off the forecourt, the same outcome AVILOO's international remarketing study reports across hundreds of dealerships.
A test previously only available through EV main dealers, often at £200 or more, now at margin-friendly trade pricing with no minimum volume.
All prices exclude VAT. Unit rental is subject to an initial 12-month agreement.
One simple arrangement. The hardware, connectivity and integration are all part of it.
The new BCA battery health grading provided by AVILOO helps our buyer customers to bid on electric vehicles with complete confidence.
EV battery complaints to the Financial Ombudsman are rising sharply, and consumers win the overwhelming majority. A documented battery report at the point of sale is what separates the dealers who defend a complaint from the ones who pay out.
MotorCheck analysed every decision ever published by the Financial Ombudsman Service, 375,328 in total, and identified 271 verified EV battery complaints. In 49 of those cases, the Ombudsman explicitly weighed battery evidence as part of their reasoning. Collectively, more than £1 million in consumer claims was adjudicated. The outcome was binary.
A documented battery health check at the point of sale was enough. In every one of 29 cases where the dealer could produce independent evidence of battery condition, the complaint was dismissed.
No documentation. No defence. The Ombudsman's reasoning is consistent: "in the absence of any further evidence…", "no evidence has been provided…", "the vehicle health check recorded no issues."

Today's Ombudsman decisions concern EVs sold three to four years ago, when the UK EV parc was a fraction of its current size. Between 2026 and 2030, more than half a million EVs exit manufacturer warranty. The complaint volume we're seeing today is the leading edge, not the limit.
From 1 case in 2013 to 96 in 2025. The last two years have seen 71% and 93% year-on-year growth.
Today's FOS complaints stem from just 80,000 EVs exiting warranty. By 2030, that figure exceeds half a million.
Projected annual industry exposure by 2029. At current growth rates, with over half a million EVs exiting manufacturer warranty between 2026 and 2030, industry-wide EV complaint exposure could exceed £10 million annually, roughly six times the 2025 level. The mass-market wave has not yet reached the FOS.
The Evidence Gap is MotorCheck's independent analysis of every decision ever published by the Financial Ombudsman Service, the largest study of EV finance complaints conducted in the UK.
Every dot on the map is an active AVILOO unit in the UK today, already running tests, already issuing certificates. From the UK's largest automotive traders to independent dealerships, businesses are embedding independent battery evidence into their used-EV process.
…and hundreds of UK car dealers building trust with every EV sale.
