I had a 2004 Scion xb back in the day that was made in Japan. Had to get rid of it after the engine developed excessive oil consumption. Had a hell of a battery in it. Panasonic brand.
Pros: hell of a battery

Yeah, the oem Panasonic battery is easy to kill. I replaced mine (2022 Turbo) with an AGM type. Most all batteries are made by Johnson Controls, under different names. The cheapest price I found was $179 with a 4 year warranty at Walmart. Everstart Platinum group 35. Was a 10 min job to remove and replace. They can even test your old one. The agm type is in the deep cycle family, it can be discharged quite a bit without any issues, the stock battery (flooded acid type) is easy to damage.
Pros: AGM type, deep cycle
Cons: OEM battery easy to kill
Vehicle:
Mazda
Part number: GROUP 35
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
Vehicle:
Mazda 3
I just replaced the battery on my eco drive from maybe 2008ish? Battery itself was 14 bucks on ebay, oem brand(Panasonic). Swap took 5 minutes.
Pros: easy swap, oem brand
My original Panasonic lasted seven years in my car when new
Pros: lasted seven years
After the original battery, i replaced it with a Panasonic battery (nasa ₱5k that time) in 4th quarter of 2019. Etong panasonic battery life, last June 2024 ko lang napalitan (after 4 to 4.5yrs of service )????
Out of stock yung Panasonic so pinagtyagaan ko nalang yung Motolite priced at ₱7k recently (shucks i hope this battery lasts kahit 2yrs).
Pros: 4 to 4.5yrs of service
Cons: Motolite, hope lasts 2yrs
Vehicle:
Nissan
Panasonic made batteries for Subaru years ago, black top and white case that you could just barely see through. Those bastards would run 7 or 8 years consistently before being replaced….
Pros: long lifespan, consistent performance
Vehicle:
Subaru
I run Panasonic in ours, so far so good.
Pros: good performance
Vehicle:
Toyota 4runner
