Not OP, but this talks about it: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2352152X25000702 https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2352152X

  That article says calendar ageing was the dominant ageing mechanism for batteries in their test vehicle, because said vehicle spent 96% of its life stationary. Unless I'm missing it, the article doesn't put a number figure on the rate of calendar ageing. Real-world observations suggest batteries are likely to be serviceable for around 20 years, which is around the same lifetime of an average ICE car. Users who can tolerate a much reduced range (which is most of us) can likely extend this even further.

    It's not clear how much of a factor calendar age degradation is in EVs because almost nobody is straightforward about it like they are in the battery industry itself.
