bruceberquist Posted August 11, 2021 Share Posted August 11, 2021 I am new to this forum. I am also a new owner of a new to me 2003 Prius 4 door sedan. I am sure to have some questions that I would like to share as I restore this pretty little hybrid, that actually is in pretty good shape for it's age. I am curious... Is there a way to charge the Torque Battery with out running the engine? A secondary question is... Is there a way that I could adapt this car to being a "Plug in" Hybrid, so that the battery is fully charged when I start my days?

Holly Hirchert Posted August 2, 2023 Share Posted August 2, 2023 I have a 2002 Prius. Are you talking about the conventional battery? If so, I have used a charger that plugs into the wall. Lately, the battery has been draining down so that I have to jump it or charge it. The dealer service representative says I need to drive longer distances at faster speeds to keep it charged up. I have done that and still have to jump it. I will be taking my car to the dealer next week for them to find out what is draining the battery down or if I need a new alternator.
