How often should the car battery be replaced?
1 Answers
The car battery should generally be replaced every 2 years or so, but with proper maintenance, it can last up to 4 years. The battery plays a crucial role in the operation of a car. If it fails to supply power normally, the engine may malfunction or stall. It is important to regularly check the battery: once a week in summer and every two weeks in winter. The car battery, also known as a storage battery, is a type of battery that converts chemical energy into electrical energy. Typically, the term 'battery' refers to a lead-acid battery, which is mainly made of lead and its oxides, with a sulfuric acid solution as the electrolyte.
