What is the model of the start-stop battery for Honda XRV?
2 Answers
Honda XRV's original battery comes in two specifications from the Varta brand: 12V48AH (5) and 12V60AH (20). Generally, the service life of an electric vehicle battery is 2-3 years, while the original battery of a new car can last more than 3 years. Additional information: Battery introduction: A car battery, also known as a storage battery, is a type of battery that works by converting chemical energy into electrical energy. The lead-acid battery, which uses sulfuric acid solution as the electrolyte, is the power source for all electrical components in the vehicle and is indispensable for starting the car. However, car batteries are also prone to damage, so extra attention should be paid to battery maintenance during daily driving. Battery usage precautions: No open flames should be near the battery to prevent igniting flammable gases in the air. The battery charging area should be well-ventilated to facilitate the diffusion of flammable gases. The polarity of the battery's plugs and sockets must be correctly connected. The connection between plugs and sockets should only be separated when the power is off.
I've been repairing cars for over a decade. The start-stop battery model for the Honda XRV is generally Q85, which can be seen on the label at the top of the battery, such as printed with Q85-XXX. The start-stop system requires specially designed batteries to handle frequent discharges, and Q85 is specifically designed for this purpose, being more durable than regular batteries. If you casually replace it with a regular battery, the system may falsely report faults, leading to increased fuel consumption or starting difficulties. Remember to check the battery condition every 2-3 years, and replace it with an original or matching model number from an authorized shop when the voltage is low to ensure stable performance. Minimizing unnecessary power consumption while driving can also extend its lifespan, but avoid unauthorized modifications to prevent circuit damage. Overall, choosing the correct model is simple but crucial, and proper maintenance can make the car run more smoothly.
