Default Help with my honda insight?

I was wondering if anyone knew how much it costs to have the battery of the car replaced and how long the battery should last. Thanks!

I've heard $6000 - $9000. I'm sure, eventually, someone will come up with a remanufactured, or inexpensive ones out of China. We're hearing 5-8 years for battery life, but I don't know that it's really been long enough to really get a good baseline going. Also, I assume it will depend on where you drive, and what kind of conditions the battery is subjected to.

Which battery, the 12v battery or the hight voltage battery.12v 100.00$ should last 3 years if from dealer or a good aftermarket battery interstate id my preference 4.5-6 years but should be replaced at 5 yrs regardless.The main high voltage batteries, A Guess 6K - 8K and should last 8-10 years but looks like some manufactures batteries are not making it as long. And you need to go back to the dealer if it's the second. Those battiries can kill you.Cost lots of doe to be green huh! Hope it's the first.
