2014 Mazda 3 with 322,000 kms, it's doing fine. I'm still on original engine, transmission and starter. I use it almost daily in traffic. The only problem is that the battery is slightly more costly than a standard one, which offsets the miniscule fuel savings you're getting from the system

Pros: original engine, transmission, starter

Cons: battery is slightly more costly

Vehicle: Mazda 3

Mileage: 322000 km

Just last week I had to change the original battery, because I was abroad for almost three months and the car had not been started even a single time. I left it outside and it's been constant -1/-5 Celsius here. So naturally the battery went.

Pros: long lasting

My 2019 Mazda 3 died on me randomly a couple months ago. The dealership ran a test on it and it came out fine. I changed it anyway as it was a stock 5 year old battery. It’s been fine since, even in the -20°C temps where I am.

Pros: fine even in cold

In 2021 am achizitionat o baterie de pe autokarma si inca o folosesc si merge probleme. In cazul meu, am achizitionat o baterie Exide(auto stop EFB 60AH- approx 430 lei), pentru o Mazda 3 benzina.

Pros: still using, works without problems

Vehicle: Mazda 3

These are excellent cars but for some reason the batteries they use are bad. I had a 21 Mazda 3. The battery failed in 2023. They replaced it under warranty. The new battery lasted literally less than 6 months.

Cons: poor quality, short lifespan

Basically many of the oem stock items for mazda are fine, but have notoriously short life expectancy. They have to cut corners somewhere. Battery and tires are the ones I've noticed that are good for a couple years at most before they are ran through. So yeah, I've had a mazda thay needed a new battery after 2 years, one that needed a new battery after 3 years. Just how they go.

Cons: notoriously short life, lasts 2-3 years
