vs
Battery Deka or OEM KIA
I use Deka sealed batteries so less offgassing messing up terminals.
Pros: less offgassing
Cons: messing up terminals
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.
Pros: long range, fast charging
Vehicle:
Kia
Papa hat den eNiro von 2020 mit 64kwh Akku. Der hat laut OBD noch 96%soh nach 100.000km.
Pros: gute Batterielebensdauer
Vehicle:
Kia
Mileage: 100000 km
I only use deka on my service rig. Usa made quality. Though listed at 540 CCA, MY Midtronics tester shows they output 650 - 750 CCA.. I easily get 7 years use in the field with these.
Pros: USA made quality, high CCA output, long lifespan
Der SoH von Papas eNiro 64kwh (2020) ist laut OBD Dongle nach 100.000km noch bei ca 96%. Bisher keine merklichen Reichweitenverluste. Kommt soweit wie am ersten Tag.
Pros: sehr gute Batterielebensdauer, keine Reichweitenverluste

Kia
Mileage: 100000 km
Deka batteries. I’ve turned wrenches for twenty years and they’re the only ones that still consistently test far above their rated capacity when new. I have one that’s 7 years old and just installed one in my other rig last year.
Pros: above rated capacity, long lifespan

I'm at over 90k miles in a 2022 Kia EV6 and haven't had an ICCU issue. All I've done outside normal wear and tear like tires is upgraded to an AGM 12V battery to solve crappy OEM battery problems
Pros: upgraded to AGM battery
Cons: crappy OEM battery
Vehicle:
Kia
Mileage: 90000 km
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.
Cons: dies in 3 years, short lifespan
Vehicle:
Kia Optima
Mileage: 321868 km
Mine died at about 44k. Good news is Kia is fully covering the replacement and the mileage warranty restarts with the new battery
Pros: replacement covered by warranty, warranty restarts
Cons: battery died prematurely
Vehicle:
Kia
Mileage: 44000 km
