My question is from all of u in the group
One of a senior pakwheeler told me today that my car is 140k kms driven so it will be requiring hybrid batteries change...
I've the answer but I want anyone out of u to answer

[DrUsmanNawaz]

U can kill the sound and can also kill the pedestrian

[DrUsmanNawaz]

Are your car batteries not working properly... i have heard that Toyota claim battery life of 250-300k km...

[aliarshad16054]

Bro there was a research on aqua in Australia where a car having odometer reading of 600k kms was investigates for remaining battery life...it was revealed that just fraction of battery life is consumed

[DrUsmanNawaz]

yes and 10 years old prius are running on factory batteries according to another research...

[aliarshad16054]

Yes
so people just forget abt mileage of hybrid cars
Just see the grading

[YAC_Ventura]

As per my little knowledge, claim of Toyota is something like 250k KM or 8 years life, which ever is reach earlier.

[aliarshad16054]

What happened to ur car batteries

[YAC_Ventura]

I hope you get answers to your question. Toyota hybrid technology is good but batteries...

[jiggerzzzz]

listen i wouldnt sweat over batteries just yet... unless and until your fuel consumption/average is being affected.... so till then let them run....

however if the vehicle is giving unsually less average then you oughta get it checked... before that let it run

i have a 2012 S package...when i bought it .. it was 80k....iv driven 30k myself..... and im still getting sweet 24-25 with AC 100% on all the time.....and that too within city... unless its a jam packed traffic then it goes down to 22

[mohammed_ahmed]

Aoa bro ..
Which custom PID are you using to scan battery voltage ?

[aliarshad16054]

Which battery

[aliarshad16054]

What answer
Batteries are non life in my opinion
Can go easily up to 1million kms

sir,
i have question,
last day i visited abbottabad on AQUA.
TILL wah cantt, BATTETY MOD ,EV, was avtive, but from hasanabdal, EV MODE NOT WORED, IN haripur at slow speed, 10,15km/hr, EV MODE NOT WORKED.even in ABBOTTABAD IT NOT WORKED.
IT may be hot engine, or else, . BUT NOW ITS OK.(IN ISLAMABAD)PLZ GUIDE ME.?

[jiggerzzzz]

maybe the battery wasnt charged enough to go to EV mode

[ali.n.khan.507]

Brother Aqua E.V mode do not work most of the time bec its battery is small. This car is designed to be efficient on fuel. Using electric motor and petrol engine in combo.
And E.V mode only works when the battery is full with light paddle.
So at long drives as there is very little regen braking so the petrol engine use to be in ON state most of the time. While electric motor provide help to the main petrol engine.
So dont worry your car is normally behaving.
