How Long Can a Hybrid Vehicle Battery Last?

[VanAnderson]

Hybrid vehicle batteries are divided into two types: ternary lithium batteries and lithium iron phosphate batteries. Ternary lithium batteries theoretically have a cycle life of around 1500 cycles, with a lifespan of up to 10 years. Lithium iron phosphate batteries theoretically have a cycle life of over 2000 cycles, with a lifespan of up to 12 years. Methods to extend the lifespan of hybrid vehicle batteries: 1. Pay attention to gentle acceleration when starting. Rapid acceleration during startup can cause high-current discharge from the battery, which easily leads to the formation of lead sulfate crystals, damaging the physical properties of the battery plates and affecting their lifespan. 2. Avoid exposure to extreme heat or cold. High-temperature environments can increase internal pressure in the battery, causing water loss and reducing battery activity, which accelerates plate aging. Similarly, prolonged exposure to cold environments can also adversely affect the performance of the battery pack.
