2 Answers
The battery model of Zotye T600 is 55D23L. The model 55D23L is a standard Japanese battery specification, where 55 represents the ampere-hour rating of the battery, D indicates the width*height dimensions of the battery (D stands for a width of 17.3 cm and a height of 20.2 cm), 23 denotes the front length of the battery at 23 cm, and L signifies that the positive terminal is on the left. Zotye T600 is the first mid-size SUV model under the Zotye brand. The vehicle is equipped with 1.5T and 2.0T engines. The 1.5T version is paired with a 5-speed manual transmission, while the 2.0T version comes with either a 5-speed manual or a 6-speed dual-clutch (DCT) transmission, offering two-wheel-drive variants. The Zotye T600 1.5T flagship model is powered by a 1.5L turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum power of 119kW and a peak torque of 215N·m, matched with a 5-speed manual transmission. Maintenance measures and precautions for automotive batteries are as follows: Always keep the battery clean and dry, and ensure the vents are open. When oxides appear on the terminals or clamps, wipe them clean and apply a small amount of grease to prevent corrosion. Avoid continuous use of the starter; each use should not exceed 5 seconds, with a 10~15-second interval between two consecutive starts. The battery's discharge level should not exceed 25% in severe winter or 50% in summer. A battery with sufficient electrolyte should not be left undercharged for extended periods. Regular charging is necessary; otherwise, it may become unusable. When charging the battery, the voltage should not be too low or too high. Generally, the standard charging voltage for a 12V battery ranges between (13.5~14.5)V, and for a 24V battery, it ranges between (28~29.9)V. The electrolyte level should be (10~15)mm above the plates. If the level is too low, promptly add distilled water. Do not add electrolyte. Rainwater and snow water cannot replace distilled water. Avoid using river water or tap water.
Hey, I'm a Zotye T600 owner. The original battery model of my car is 6-QW-60 with a capacity of 60 ampere-hours. It starts quickly and stably after long-term use. The battery is located in the right corner under the hood, and you can find the label with clear specifications when you open the cover. When replacing it, I chose the Varta brand, which is affordable and durable. Remember to check the voltage every year to avoid being in a rush when it fails to start in the cold winter. Mismatched models can damage the starter and even trigger the system warning light. Last year, I didn’t pay attention when replacing it and ended up losing dozens of dollars to redo it. I recommend buying genuine products for peace of mind, cost savings, and safety. The battery life is generally three to four years, and regular maintenance can extend it.
