    I checked at the dealer (Europe/Greece) about replacing the 12v battery.

    They told me there are two part number options available:
    The old one, 28800-21170 which is the known Yuasa battery,
    And a new one 28800-YZZPD which is a battery with toyota brand on it and clearly stating that it is AGM type.

    For example in this ebay link you can see it:
    TOYOTA PRIUS PLUS 12V BATTERY 45AH AUXILIARY BATTERY CT200H PRIUS 28800-YZZPD for sale

    Is this something new? Because it looks more promising than the Yuasa that I can't find any concrete info about the type of belattery it is. Anyone know how those batteries compare and also with the Optima.

    they call it a trustart here. not sure who is making it,but the warranty seems reasonable.
