The state of charge (SOC) estimation for electric vehicles (EVs) is important and helps to optimize the utilization of the battery energy storage in EVs. In this way, aging is also a key parameter impacting the performance of batteries. In this paper, a hybrid neural model is proposed for the SOC estimation of ZEBRA (Zero Emission Battery Research Activities) battery considering the aging effect through the state of health (SOH) and the discharge efficiency (DE) parameters. The number of hidden
