The M Hybrid battery has a certain battery life. Battery life differs depending on how the vehicle is used and the driving conditions.
Charging the M Hybrid battery
The M Hybrid battery is charged automatically during engine operation and by deceleration regeneration. Therefore, it is not necessary to charge the battery from outside of the vehicle.
Drive the vehicle for about 30 minutes once every few months because self-discharge occurs gradually if the vehicle is not driven for a long period of time. If the M Hybrid battery becomes completely discharged and M Hybrid cannot be activated, contact an expert repairer (we recommend an Authorised Mazda Repairer).
