What is the maintenance schedule for the Kia Niro battery?

I've recently purchased a Kia Niro and I'm wondering how often I need to replace or recharge the battery. Can you provide some information about the maintenance schedule for the battery, and any tips for prolonging its lifespan?

Congratulations on your new Kia Niro, Julia! The battery maintenance schedule for your car will depend on driving conditions, but as a general rule, it is recommended to check the battery every 6 months or 7,500 miles. You should also have it replaced every 3-5 years or if you notice any signs of deterioration.

To prolong the lifespan of your Kia Niro's battery, make sure to avoid deep discharges and keep it charged between 30-80%. You can also periodically clean the terminals with a mixture of baking soda and water to prevent corrosion.

Hi Julia, the battery is a crucial component of your car, so it's important to take good care of it. It's always a good idea to have a professional mechanic inspect the battery every year to make sure it's in good condition.
