We have a Kia Niro PHEV and love it. I get around 3000km per tank because for the most part I'm just not using gas.
I will second a class 3 Bosch. I have one in a hilly city that absolutely rocks the steeps and has a great battery life. Going on 2 years strong and I've had zero battery issues. It rains a lot here but no problems with the Shimano drivetrain either, just regular maintenance.
Jumped a cascadia '21 with my 2014 Kia Sorento
I have a Cube Stereo Hybrid pro (insert numbers here)
Priced about 3.5k retail, it's an absolute dream to ride. Quiet, huge battery (bosch power tube 800)
The battery in my EV6 lasts longer than my wife’s bladder can hold on a road trip and the speed of charging means that by the time we’ve headed into the services, toilet, maybe grab a coffee and we’re back at >80% basically every time. In good conditions we get 300 miles to a full battery, worst I’ve had is 260 and that’s with AC, heated seats, not driving like a granny etc.
Papa hat den eNiro von 2020 mit 64kwh Akku. Der hat laut OBD noch 96%soh nach 100.000km.
I have used Bosch, Panasonic, and now Amaron in my 2013 WK2. Bosch lasted as much as my previous 2 Mopar lasted.
The only issue I’ve had with this car is the battery, they usually die in about 3years, but they are AGM batteries and they usually die within that Timeframe in Phoenix,AZ Anyway because of the Heat.
A few hours later he came back with a new S4 018 Bosch battery (original one was Yuasa HSB056). He assured me it had the same specs, despite being a different brand (40Ah, 12V). He installed it, and then told me it was a “slightly different base size” from the old one.
I have a Kia Soul that goes through the OEM batteries every two-three years.
