What is the battery model of the Lavida?
2 Answers
The battery model of the Lavida is 12v60ah. The functions of the battery are: 1. When starting the engine, the battery supplies power to the starting system, ignition system, and electronic fuel injection system; 2. When the engine is stopped or idling at low speed, it powers the vehicle's electrical equipment; 3. When the generator output is insufficient, it supplies power to the electrical equipment; 4. It mitigates voltage surges in the electrical system, protecting the vehicle's electronic devices; 5. It stores excess electricity generated by the alternator. Taking the 2021 Volkswagen Lavida as an example, its body dimensions are: length 4670mm, width 1806mm, height 1474mm, with a wheelbase of 2688mm.
From my experience of changing the car battery myself, I know that the Lavida generally uses the L2-400 model battery, which has a capacity of 12 volts and 60 ampere-hours. Brands like VARTA or Bosch are quite common. It needs to match the engine size and power requirements of the Lavida—too big or too small can cause problems. When replacing, always disconnect the negative terminal first to ensure safety and avoid short circuits. The battery lifespan is typically 2 to 3 years, and I recommend regularly checking the voltmeter, especially in winter to prevent the battery from freezing. If you frequently drive short distances, the battery may not charge sufficiently, leading to power loss, which means you might need to replace it earlier. Regular maintenance includes keeping the terminals clean by using baking soda to remove corrosion—it’s cost-effective and reliable. Don’t skimp on quality by buying off-brand batteries, as they can cause starting issues. In short, doing it yourself can save you a few hundred bucks, but you need to learn the steps carefully.
