The average car battery will last for about three to five years. In some cases you'll find it fails right in the middle of this scale and needs replacing at the four-year mark. The exception to this rule of thumb is the modern AGM (Absorbent Glass Mat) technology. This is found in batteries rated for 6 or 7 years.
How often should I replace my car battery? When it comes to vehicle maintenance, normal is determined by a number of factors that exist in theory but rarely come to pass. For instance, a battery has an average normal lifespan of four years under normal conditions. Normal in this case means the battery goes through full charge cycles, isn't subjected to extreme temperatures, is attached to a reliable and consistent charging system and isn't providing power for a ton of accessories.
