Battery OEM Toyota or OEM Honda
Toyota Prius, the battery isn't that big of a deal, the health can be checked with an app and a dongle, and they;re the most reliable cars on the planet.
Cells in the battery are probably done. Happened to my wife\u2019s accord. Said the battery was fine and wouldn\u2019t charge because she barely drives it since she works from home and recommended we get a battery tender. Come to find out the charge of the battery was fine but the cells were dead which is why it wouldn\u2019t charge. Time for a new battery.
I\u2019ve jumpstarted my 2019 freightliner from a Honda Accord before.
Pruis 12v battery last a long time. I just replaced my 11 year old battery. It was still working I just decided to do it as maintenance.
I have a ‘24 RAV4 Prime and a ‘13 Prius V. I can say that my battery and fuel efficiency on both vehicles drops between 30 and 40% as soon as the cold weather hits. Range on the RAV4 Prime goes from 80km/charge to about 55-60km in cold weather, plus the gas runs more often so I don’t go as far on a tank (~1300km winter vs our record 2100km spring/summer).
When I experienced a sluggish start, it was the battery. In my experience, this car prefers Honda batteries. It’s been going strong for 3 years now. It’s also one of the more affordable batteries.
And the super small battery…
I drive a 2019 CRV and was thinking about a new battery, doing research man it seems like today's batteries don't last, I figured i got 6 yrs with a Honda so I stuck with their brand
I did have to buy a new battery because the OEM was leaking, but other than that, the vehicle has been great.
I replaced the battery on my wives 2009 honda accord. Started her up and it made this awful sound the second the AC kicked on. Bogged down the engine and made it run rough. It has never had AC issues until now and I'm sure it's coincidence with the battery changeout.
