Where is the battery located in the Haval H8?

Haval H8 battery is located under the front passenger seat, which can be seen by lifting the seat. Car battery replacement cycle: Under normal usage, the battery generally needs to be replaced every two years or so. If the air conditioning is frequently used with the engine off or electrical equipment is operated without idling, the battery may need replacement in less than two years. Of course, good driving habits can extend the battery's lifespan, allowing replacement at two and a half or even three years. However, the exact timing for battery replacement should be determined based on the battery's wear and tear. Types of car batteries: Batteries are generally divided into two types: ordinary lead-acid batteries and maintenance-free batteries. Both types of batteries can have their lifespan affected by harsh usage or moderate usage.
My 2016 Haval H8 has a sneaky battery location—it's not in the engine bay at all! You’ll find it under the trunk floor. Here’s how: First, clear out the trunk clutter, lift the bottom felt mat, and you’ll spot a small cover with a pull handle in the center. Pry open two plastic clips with your fingernail to remove the cover, and the battery lies horizontally in a foam slot. Even a roadside assistance guy got it wrong before, so remind anyone giving a jump-start about its location. Many urban SUVs use this design to save engine bay space and balance front-rear weight. When replacing it yourself, avoid reversing the terminals, and choose battery model H6-60-L-T2-A.
