Battery Duracell or OEM BMW
I got a Duracell at Sam's Club for around $150, no prorating on 3 year warranty if it goes. Just a new battery.
Pros: 3 year warranty
Don't get cheap ones!
Duracell is your only man
Pros: Duracell is best
Cons: Don't get cheap ones
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
I replaced the OEM battery in my low-mileage 2019 Alltrack S two days ago. (OEM battery was lead-acid 5K0 915 105 D, it was replaced with a Duracell Ultra Platinum SLI47AGM, 600 CCA.)
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
Part number: SLI47AGM
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
Vehicle:
BMW
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:
BMW X5
I’ve replaced several Duracell batteries recently that had been recently installed within the last few month. We’ve had good luck with power sonic, yusa, and first power.
Pros: good luck with Powersonic
Cons: Duracell fail quickly
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
Vehicle:
BMW
Duracell killed 6 pieces of electronics of mine over 10 years. If you paid me, I would not use them.
Cons: killed electronics
