I have been driving a 2023 S60 Recharge for 2 years now. If someone told you it's bad to drive them with the battery depleted, they lied to you.
Pros: rear wheels always powered

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

Cons: Regret buying jump box
Part number: D35
Stock OEM Mazda CX5 battery is weak AF. My 2019 battery died in Jan 2024 after coming back from Disney trip that lasted 7 days. Got one from Costco. Higher CCA for less than OEM from Mazda. Installed myself.

Cons: Stock battery weak

OEM for Harley. I've replaced several with an average lifespan of 5 yrs at 20%+ cheaper than Harley branded
Pros: long lifespan, cheaper
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
Vehicle:
Mazda 3

My cousin has a 2018 Atlas and a month ago he called me and said he car wouldn't start. It'd just rapidly click. So I drove over there and gave him a jump. Still wouldn't start. So I thought maybe it's the starter motor. Called a bunch of repair shops and they said the battery is dead and needs to be replaced.
Cons: battery dead, car wouldn't start
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
