On average, a car battery is designed to last 5 years.
But its longevity can be affected if the car is not driven very much (because the car battery is not used and discharges progressively).
In fact, this longevity will be reduced if :
it makes many short journeys (because the multiplication of starting cycles leads to premature wear of the car battery)
It is equipped with multiple accessories that consume a lot of electrical energy (because the car battery runs down more quickly)
It is subject to temperature changes (because extreme cold or heat can cause the car battery to discharge).
