- 2
Graded at Atlanta, Georgia
Modules travel 1,183 km to Atlanta — Georgia Grading Centre for capacity, resistance and impedance testing across all 8 modules.
- 3
Second life at Gothenburg, Sweden
At 80% SOH about 47% of the pack qualifies for reuse and goes to Gothenburg — Nordic Second-Life Campus (6,109 km). Limited — accelerated manganese dissolution caps second-life warranty terms at 36 months.

What the chemistry means here
How it ages
LMO's weak point is manganese dissolution, which speeds up at elevated temperature and damages the anode. Packs that lived in hot climates without active cooling typically fade faster.
Thermal behaviour
Manganese spinel is more thermally stable than nickel-rich cathodes, but blended LMO-NMC pouch cells still vent flammable gas when abused, and older packs may have weaker protection electronics.
Handling LMO Pouch
Collecting a Mahindra eVerito pack
21.2 kWh, 8 modules, about 172 kg — this is how the Toronto, Ontario team plans the job.
Removal
Large packs are removed at the depot with a forklift-rated battery table and the vehicle isolated under lock-out tag-out.
