What to know about DR batteries
- On sports models the battery is often in the boot or front luggage area, which changes how a flat car is accessed.
- Cars that are driven rarely benefit from a maintenance charger between uses.

FAQ
DR DR2 battery questions
Short, direct answers. Message us if yours is not here.
Which battery does the DR DR2 take?
It depends on the model year and engine. Send both, ideally with a photo of the current battery label, and we confirm the correct size, terminal layout and technology before bringing it.
Can you replace a DR DR2 battery at my home on Yas Island?
Yes. We fit DR2 batteries at accessible homes, apartment parking and hotel or mall car parks on Yas Island. Send your location pin and parking details so we can confirm the visit.
How long does a DR DR2 battery last in Abu Dhabi?
Heat shortens battery life, so batteries here often need replacing sooner than the three to five years typical elsewhere. Short trips and long periods parked shorten it further. A yearly test tells you where yours stands.
My DR is rarely driven. Why does the battery keep dying?
The car draws a small current even when locked, and without regular driving the battery never recovers. Heat makes it worse. Use a maintenance charger when your DR is parked for long periods, and have the battery tested if it has already gone flat several times.
