Look for something super shiny and silver behind your hepa filter

The 12v is usually black. Only real way is to remove the hepa filter and you’ll see the li ion battery

You could also plug a DC voltmeter into the 12V accessory port. If the voltmeter reads 13.5 to 14.5 Volts it is the lead-acid battery. If the voltmeter reads 15V to 16V it is the lithium battery module (rated 15.5V)

As far as anyone can tell, it's tied to the AMD chip. Look for it in the system information screen.

If you have the window sticker sheet for the car, it will also list lithium ion low voltage battery as one of the features.

It says on the window sticker really?
