If the battery is fully charged and the car is in good condition, leaving it unused for 20 days is generally fine. The impacts of prolonged car inactivity and precautions for parking a car are as follows: Impacts of prolonged car inactivity: If the car is not in good condition and the battery is not fully charged, leaving it parked for 20 days may drain the battery. Generally, if a car is left unused for half a month, the battery will still have some charge, but the voltage will drop, making it harder to start. Precautions for parking a car: When parking a car, it is best to start it once a week to recharge the battery. A new battery can last longer without use, while an old battery discharges faster. To prevent battery drain, it is advisable to start the vehicle regularly. If you don't have time to start the vehicle, it is recommended to disconnect all the battery cables.
