Batteries 

One of the dreams that a car lover always has is to fantasise about his or her car running only on a battery without gasoline. So, if you own a hybrid car, you should know that the battery used in it is hugely expensive. Replacing a single defective battery in a hybrid vehicle may cost up to $6,000. Batteries by default are built in a way that they lose their ability to charge with the passage of time. It will not be wrong to say that changing a battery is equivalent to changing the brain of your car. But as they say every problem has a solution so there must be a way to make your batteries last longer. 

Weather is one of the leading factors towards affecting a car battery. A running engine already produces a lot of heat so warm weather can add into early battery failure. Weather measures should be taken in order to prevent a battery failure due to scorching summer heat. Other precautions could include limiting short rides, tightly fitted battery, avoid using electronics while engine is off could help.
