Slate consolidated its lineup to a single lithium-iron-phosphate (LFP) pack rated at 65 kWh (about 63 kWh usable) for an estimated 205 miles of range. The originally planned NMC standard (52.7 kWh) and extended (84.3 kWh) packs were both dropped; Slate says the LFP pack already fills the available battery space, so no longer-range option is offered. LFP chemistry typically tolerates daily charging to 100% and delivers longer cycle life than NMC, at some cost in cold-weather range and energy density.

Charging architecture supports up to 120 kW DC fast charging and an 11 kW Level 2 onboard charger, with a NACS port compatible with Tesla's Supercharger network. Slate quotes a 20% to 80% DC session of roughly 30 minutes; that figure is a peak-throughput estimate, not a real-world average across temperature and pack state.

How this pack ages (industry context)

Industry fleet aggregates: 2.3% average annual capacity loss across 22,700 EVs / 21 models (Geotab, 2026), and 95% range retention at 5 years on average across 30,000+ vehicles (Recurrent, 2026).

OEM warranty floor: not yet announced by Slate Auto. The US-market EV baseline is 8 yr / 100,000 mi to a 70% capacity floor, but that should not be assumed here until Slate Auto publishes its warranty booklet.

Public per-pack degradation curves are not available for most models. Individual results vary materially with climate, charging behavior, and DC fast-charge frequency.
