You might also check the 12v battery, if it's limping along on the original or a dead one it would have to be constantly recharged by the HV battery & inverter running more often. Our 2013 had the original battery still in it when we bought it a couple months ago, clinging on at 11.9v. Mileage seems to have improved slightly with a fresh one.

Pros: Mileage seems improved
Cons: original battery was dead

OEM Toyota Battery

I have a 2016 Gen 4 that my partner commutes about 100 miles round trip in. Aside from its strange looks it's a great car. Zero repairs so far at more than 220K miles. No rattles or clunks. Every single electric button and switch still works.

Pros: Zero repairs, great car
Cons: strange looks
Mileage: 354000 km

Duralast Battery

You need this one, and it takes about 10 minutes to install. Just hop into the front trunk, unbolt the bar from the firewall that braces the battery -- iirc 13mm. Remove the tire inflator and the box (pulls right out), remove the other bolt, unscrew the two terminals (10mm probably), swap batteries. Done.

Pros: easy to install, 10 minutes
Vehicle: Porsche Cayman

OEM Toyota Battery

Not a Lexus but 2023 Camry and had my battery die twice and both times had Toyota test it and charge it.

It was from lack of use, and short drives. The battery was also on the low amp of cca ratings. I replaced it with a much stronger CCA rating battery and haven't had any issues,

Pros: no more issues
Cons: battery died twice
Vehicle: Toyota Camry

Just had a 5yo Napa battery die, put a new Duralast Platinum Elite in there, back to running normal except 2 things: 1/ Random engine fan activation seems to be what killed the previous battery. Still happening.

Pros: back to running normal
Cons: random fan activation, battery died
