Regardless, while that’s sorta old for a battery, I have OEM BMW batteries going on 12 years with 89% charge capacity.
Pros: long lasting, high charge capacity
Cons: sorta old
Vehicle:
BMW
These were very very well made batteries. They also used to be insanely expensive. Now, BMW knows the game and offers a 2 year warranty, which is pretty low for batteries, but they are very competitively priced.
Pros: well made batteries
Cons: short warranty

530e with a little over 20,000 miles shows 10 miles electric range on a nice summer day. It used to show 15 when new. BMW said that the drop was not warranty worthy.
Cons: reduced electric range, not warranty worthy
Vehicle:
BMW
Mileage: 32187 km
My 2021 45e usually gets 30-34 in mild southern US weather per charge.
Pros: good electric range
Vehicle:
BMW X5
I drive a 2016 f15 x5 40e. After 7 years i still do the same distance full electric, maybe 2-3km less but can be my driving style
Pros: consistent electric range
Cons: slight range reduction
Vehicle:

I have been driving a 2022 330e since March 2022 and haven’t seen any battery degradation to date. In the NY winter I still get at least 20 miles on a full charge, in the summer 23-30.
Pros: no battery degradation, consistent range
Cons: lower range in winter
Vehicle:
BMW
I set off to test the X5 battery to see if degradation was better or worse than my iPhone's 10% degradation over one year. We've driven 29,996 miles, 15,296.5 electric. My best all-electric range achieved was about 41 miles when new. After one year, I achieved exactly 41 all-electric miles from a full charge in ideal conditions. Zero percent degradation as measured by this test. It appears temperature and AC/heat use have much greater impacts on range than actual battery health at this stage. Results look better than expected for long term ownership and residual value.
Pros: zero degradation, better than expected
Cons: range affected by temperature
Vehicle:
BMW X5
Mileage: 48275 km
my bmw would say this, a year after having a new oem batt installed, and only in the winter, dealer couldn't find the problem, so I traded it in for another subaru because parasitic draws are the last thing you want in a german car
Cons: problem persisted, dealer couldn't fix, parasitic draws

For about a month I have owned a 2016 REx whose 60 Ah battery is supposed to get 72 miles. This week I fully charged it and have been commuting four four days without topping up. Today the REx kicked in with the trip meter at 73.3 miles. This was a mixture of city traffic jams and short bursts on the carriageway, mostly with the air con on and mostly in Comfort mode. So I'm pretty pleased.
Pros: good range, satisfactory performance
