How Long Do the Batteries Last in a Hybrid Car?

How Long Do the Batteries Last in a Hybrid Car?If you’re new to owning a hybrid car, you may be wondering how frequently you’ll have to invest in a new battery for it. It’s one of the few downsides to driving a hybrid, really, as you know the time for a replacement will inevitably come eventually. But exactly how long do the batteries last in a hybrid car? While the answer varies depending on the model, you can generally expect your battery to last you somewhere around 100,000 miles before you have to start thinking about a new one. But when that time approaches, it’s important that you’re prepared.

When You’ll Need to Start Thinking About a Hybrid Battery Replacement

Despite there not being a concrete number of miles you’ll hit before needing a hybrid battery replacement, some signs will emerge to alert you the time is nearing. Typically, around the time you reach 100,000 miles-plus, you’ll notice a decrease in your miles per gallon (MPG) and potentially some fluctuation with your battery’s state of charge. Those are two major indicators that you need to start thinking about finding a new battery.

Your Hybrid Battery Replacement Options

When you start looking for a new hybrid battery, you’ll find that you have a few options. You can go straight to the manufacturer and find a brand-new battery, or you can look elsewhere for both new and rebuilt batteries. New batteries will provide outstanding longevity, of course, but if you find the right company that expertly rebuilds batteries, you can experience exceptional value for a lower price than you’d expect to pay on the market.
