Honda Civic Hybrid Battery (IMA) Replacement Cost & Lifespan
Honda's Civic Hybrid uses the IMA system, so a failing battery shows up as the IMA light and weaker assist. Here's what the replacement costs depend on and how to get a firm price.
What affects the cost
The price of a Honda Civic Hybrid hybrid battery depends on a few things:
- Battery type — a reconditioned pack is the most affordable, new-cell packs sit in the middle, and brand-new OEM-grade cells cost the most.
- Warranty length — we offer 45-day, 6-month, 1-year, 3-year, and 5-year plans, all unlimited mileage. Longer coverage costs more up front.
- Generation and model — We service the NiMH Honda Civic Hybrid (2003-2005 and 2006-2011).
- Install type — mobile installation at your home or work (where offered) versus a drop-off at one of our shops.
Because pricing changes with battery type and warranty, the fastest way to a firm number is the Honda Civic Hybrid battery page or a quick call. We confirm the final price once we verify your vehicle.
How long does a Honda Civic Hybrid battery last?
A Civic Hybrid IMA battery often lasts 8 to 12 years or roughly 100,000 to 150,000 miles, though it varies with climate and driving style. Replacing it with a quality pack and the right warranty gets you back to normal range and fuel economy for years.
