Parking my hybrid in the sun heat
Hello,
I am new hybrid owner, to be specific a new Toyota Corolla Hybrid, 2020 manufactured and it has a Nimh battery pack.
I like my new car and I would like to keep the battery in a very good condition as much as possible.
I have the following fears.... If some expert can clarify them:
1. If I Park my car in the sun heat, will it damage the HV battery? (I use AC when driving). Is it ok if I leave the car parked with 50% SOC (as shown on the screen, the real SOC may differ)
The temperature under the sun sometimes is over 100F
2. If I drive it more in the electric mode (not using the EV button) will it damage the battery? On autopilot it even gets up to 60mph full electric
3. Is it ok if i drive it for short distances (2-3 miles)?
4. If I drive it on a mountain road (steep slopes) will it kill the battery sooner? (I use B when going downhills)
5. With what SOC should I live my car parked? Does it depend on the weather also (cold, hot)
Thank you and sorry for the noobie... -
Immobilizer icon flashing
2020 phev prime. I feel like I missed something after owner this car for 10 month. Today I noticed the immobilizer icon on when I turned car off. Never saw this before. It turns off when I start ignition and drive. Just seems weird that it’s on when car is off and or locked. Help - with my confusion. -
