How do I properly maintain the hybrid battery on my Toyota Yaris?

I recently purchased a Toyota Yaris hybrid and I want to make sure I am properly taking care of the hybrid battery. What steps should I take to maintain the battery and extend its lifespan?

It's important to regularly drive your car to keep the battery charged. However, if you are planning on leaving your car idle for an extended period of time, make sure to fully charge the battery before doing so.

Avoid extreme temperatures as they can have a negative impact on the battery's lifespan. If you live in a very hot or cold climate, consider investing in a battery blanket or insulator.

Regularly schedule maintenance checks for your Yaris hybrid, including checking the battery's voltage and capacity. This will help catch any potential issues early on.

If you notice any decrease in your car's fuel efficiency, it could be a sign that your hybrid battery needs to be replaced. Consult with a certified technician to determine the best course of action.
