What is the battery model for Camry?

The battery model for Camry is 80D26L, with a capacity of 65A and 12V. A device that converts chemical energy into electrical energy is called a chemical battery, commonly referred to as a battery. In daily use, to prolong the battery's lifespan, it is advisable to avoid using in-car electrical appliances after the engine is turned off. When the vehicle is running, using in-car electrical appliances means the battery is not only supplying power but also charging, known as a floating charge state, which causes minimal wear to the battery. Function of car batteries: Car batteries are primarily used for starting and lighting in automobiles, motorcycles, tractors, diesel engines, etc. They act as voltage stabilizers for the vehicle's electrical system, mitigating impact voltages in the electrical system and protecting electronic equipment in the car. Maintenance methods for car batteries: It is essential to charge the battery regularly, as frequent short-distance driving can leave the battery undercharged for extended periods, shortening its lifespan. If the car needs to be parked for a long time, the battery's negative terminal should be disconnected promptly to reduce battery wear. Minimize the starting time of the car; each start should not exceed 5 seconds. If consecutive starts are needed, ensure a longer interval between them, preferably 10 to 15 seconds.
I've been driving for almost twenty years. The battery model for a Camry depends on the year. The mainstream options are C24 or C27. For example, older models from 2006-2014 mostly use C24 (size 200x173x190mm), while newer models after 2015 may use C27 or Q85 (available in 55Ah and 65Ah versions). Don’t just trust what you read online—the most accurate way is to lift the hood and check the battery label, which shows the model and CCA (Cold Cranking Amps, at least 480A is reliable). For brands, I recommend Panasonic or Bosch, ensuring the size matches to avoid poor contact and fire risks. During regular maintenance, I check the electrolyte level and clean electrode corrosion periodically. Avoiding frequent short trips can prevent premature aging. A replacement typically costs 200-500 RMB, and it’s safer to go to a professional shop. Using the wrong model can shorten battery life and affect startup speed—safety comes first.
