How Long Does a Ford Vehicle Battery Last?

Standard Vehicle Battery

Battery failure can be a common reason for vehicle breakdown. There are many factors that can influence the condition and lifetime of a battery however; inspection and maintenance of batteries will minimise the risk of failure during early service life.

If you replace the battery make sure it matches the electrical requirements of your vehicle. For information regarding the correct battery specification for your vehicle, contact your local Ford dealership or refer to your owner's manual.

Electric Vehicle Battery

Electric car batteries are built to last the entire life of the vehicle. They lose a little potency over time, maybe 1-2% a year, which is only noticeable if you drive the car’s maximum range regularly.

The best way to optimise battery lifespan is to drive smoothly and avoid extreme temperatures when possible.
