What is the best maintenance schedule for the Kia Niro battery?

I recently purchased a Kia Niro and want to make sure I am properly maintaining the hybrid battery. What is the recommended maintenance schedule for the battery? Should I have it checked regularly, or only when an issue arises?

As a general rule, it is recommended to have your Kia Niro's battery checked every 12,000 miles or every 12 months, whichever comes first. However, if you notice any issues with your battery, such as decreased fuel efficiency or difficulty starting the car, you should have it checked immediately.

It is important to keep in mind that hybrid batteries have a longer lifespan compared to traditional car batteries. However, it is still important to have it checked regularly to ensure a longer lifespan and prevent any potential issues.

In addition to regular check-ups, there are also some things you can do to maintain your Kia Niro's battery. For example, try to avoid letting the battery fully deplete and use the battery's regenerative braking feature to help extend its lifespan.
