What is the design lifespan of a car battery?
1 Answers
Battery design lifespan is 27 months. Detailed explanation: 1. For typical family vehicles with conservative usage, new car batteries can last 3-4 years. 2. However, after the first replacement, batteries generally require replacement every 2 years. 3. Taxis consume batteries more aggressively - single-shift taxis last just over one year; double-shift taxis approximately 8-10 months. 4. Key factors affecting battery lifespan: vehicle condition, road conditions, and driving habits. 5. Generally, newer vehicles preserve batteries better due to more efficient motors. When the alternator functions properly, the battery charges sufficiently; whereas older vehicles, especially those with replaced motors or alternators, experience quicker battery deterioration.
