How Long Can an Auto Start-Stop Battery Last?
1 Answers
Auto start-stop batteries are designed with a lifespan of over six years, but their actual service life typically ranges between three to four years, with some requiring replacement in less than two years. A start-stop battery is specifically designed to meet the demands of frequent automatic start-stop operations, capable of assessing its own charge level to determine if it meets the start-stop requirements. When the charge is low, it will automatically disable the start-stop function. The primary characteristics of auto start-stop batteries include stronger discharge capabilities compared to regular batteries, larger capacity to support the engine's high-frequency start-stop cycles, and a longer lifespan. Vehicle owners are advised to conduct regular inspections and address any issues promptly or replace the battery as needed.
