  • Method for Operating a Traction Battery for a Motor Vehicle, Electronic Computing Device, and Motor Vehicle Having a Traction Battery
    Publication number: 20250206187
    Abstract: A method for operating a traction battery for a motor vehicle, which can be discharged down to a predefined minimum charging state during operation of the motor vehicle and can be charged up to a predefined maximum charging state in a charging operation, wherein, the minimum charging state is increased and/or the maximum charging state is decreased if a limit value is reached by the value of a predefined parameter which describes a variable property of the traction battery.
