Car Battery: A car battery, also known as a storage battery, is a type of battery that works by converting chemical energy into electrical energy.

I've been driving a Lexus ES200 for a few years. The battery model is usually a standard part like 55B24R or 55D23, depending on the year and version. Older models might use 55B24L, while newer ones sometimes have updated designs. You can pop the hood and check the label on top of the battery for confirmation—it'll show the brand and the capacity in numbers. When replacing the battery, consider brand compatibility and capacity; something like 65Ah works well. A mismatch can lead to starting issues. Don’t cheap out on low-quality batteries, or you might struggle to start the car in winter—my lesson is to check it every three years. Choose a reputable brand like Fengfan or Varta, and remember to disconnect the power for safety when replacing it. Also, measure the original battery size to avoid buying one that’s too big to fit.
