What type of battery is in the 2022 Toyota Highlander Hybrid?

  • The vehicle uses two battery systems: a high-voltage hybrid traction battery and a 12V auxiliary battery that supports electronics and control systems.
  • Typically, the hybrid traction battery in many Toyota hybrids is nickel-metal hydride (NiMH); some configurations or future/alternative builds may use lithium-ion technology—exact type depends on the vehicle’s original specification.
  • The 12V auxiliary battery is commonly a sealed lead-acid or AGM design; our technicians confirm the correct OEM part and install it to original specifications.
  • For precise identification and replacement parts, rely on dealer diagnostics—this ensures correct fitment and preserves any applicable warranty coverage.

What size battery is in the 2022 Toyota Highlander Hybrid?

  • The high-voltage hybrid battery is sized specifically for the vehicle’s hybrid system and is not interchangeable with standard 12V batteries; its capacity and module count are determined by the hybrid configuration.
  • 12V auxiliary battery group size and specifications vary by production configuration; the exact group and part number are confirmed through the VIN and dealer records.
  • Our service team uses OEM parts and verifies the correct size and specification before installation to ensure reliability and long-term performance.

2022 Toyota Highlander Hybrid Battery Replacement

Having routine battery checks means replacement decisions are informed rather than urgent. A scheduled inspection at Nalley Toyota Stonecrest documents battery condition, allowing replacement to be planned at a convenient time with OEM parts on hand. When replacement is necessary, our technicians follow factory procedures for safe removal, installation and system reinitialization, including any required software calibration. This reduces the risk of diagnostic errors or electrical faults that can arise from improper handling. Dealer-performed replacements are also typically faster overall because we stock the correct components and have technicians trained specifically on Toyota hybrid systems. You benefit from accurate installation that maintains fuel efficiency, emissions performance and the hybrid system’s intended behavior. Additionally, any repair or replacement covered under warranty must be completed at a certified dealership to keep coverage intact—our service advisors will verify coverage before work begins and present clear, itemized estimates so you understand immediate costs and the long-term savings of professional service.

2022 Toyota Highlander Hybrid Battery Type

Routine checks identify the specific battery chemistry in your vehicle and detect issues unique to each type. Hybrid traction batteries (commonly NiMH in many Toyota hybrids, with some models or configurations using lithium-ion) and the 12V auxiliary battery each age differently and require different diagnostic approaches. At Nalley Toyota Stonecrest we use OEM-level diagnostics to assess both systems, ensuring the correct replacement part and procedure. Choosing dealer service means the right chemistry is matched to your vehicle, avoiding compatibility problems that can reduce performance or durability. Our factory-trained technicians interpret hybrid-system codes, test module balance and verify state-of-health metrics to determine whether repair, module replacement or full pack replacement is best. This precision preserves vehicle performance and prevents premature failure. When battery work is performed at the dealership, warranty claims and future diagnostics are streamlined because service is logged to manufacturer standards—protecting both the vehicle’s operational integrity and the owner’s financial interests.

2022 Toyota Highlander Hybrid Battery Size

Knowing the exact battery size is essential for reliable replacement and accurate diagnostics. Routine battery checks at the dealership record the high-voltage pack configuration and the 12V group size tied to your vehicle’s VIN and original build data. This prevents incorrect part ordering and avoids the costly delays or failures that can occur with mismatched components. Dealer records and OEM parts ensure the replacement battery meets the original specifications for capacity, terminal orientation and mounting, which protects vehicle packaging and safety systems. Our technicians verify fitment, secure connections and run post-installation tests that confirm the battery integrates correctly with the hybrid control system. That diligence minimizes the chance of future electrical faults and preserves fuel economy and towing capability. For precise sizing information and a transparent quote, our service department provides VIN-based confirmation and will discuss part options, timing and any applicable service specials to reduce out-of-pocket expense while maximizing vehicle longevity.

2022 Toyota Highlander Hybrid Battery Warranty

Routine battery checks help preserve warranty eligibility by documenting condition and maintenance history. When a battery-related issue is covered under warranty, repairs must be performed at a certified dealership to keep that coverage in force. Nalley Toyota Stonecrest handles warranty diagnostics, authorizations and repairs on your behalf, using OEM parts and factory procedures that satisfy manufacturer requirements. This approach protects you from unexpected costs and ensures any replaced components are eligible for warranty coverage. In addition to warranty-authorized work, dealer-performed services often offer extended support and genuine parts that reduce the likelihood of repeat visits. We provide transparent documentation for every service, and our advisors will explain any warranty implications before work begins. Relying on certified technicians at the dealership ensures repairs are processed correctly with the manufacturer and gives you documented proof of maintenance that supports future resale value and long-term ownership savings.
