Battery OEM Audi or Duralast
It's a lovely car, but very bad on the efficiency. We have a 55 and the range varies from 150 in the winter to 250 in the summer. Honestly, for the money you'll struggle to get more car, it's very comfortable, quick, and has mountains of room inside. Ours is a 2019 on 70k miles, and has had zero issues
Pros: very comfortable, quick
Cons: bad on the efficiency

Just a heads up I had same issue with my Titan and it was the battery. I purchased a cheaper battery and 6 months in I get only a click when trying to start truck. Sometimes would start sometimes not. Then I bought the same battery again to see if that would fix the issue. This time it didn\u2019t start at all with the same type of battery, tested 100% charge and 100% battery life. So I said let me try buying a better quality battery just to see if anything happens, sure enough the truck started. It has kept starting ever since.
Pros: truck started, issue fixed
Cons: cheaper battery failed

Duralast is a decent brand, I’ve always went with the gold, no real reason just that it’s what was in the car before.
Pros: decent brand
my 2010 4x4 needs a new battery. This one lasted 4 years Duralast Gold.
Pros: lasted 4 years
I usually get a Duralast Gold from pepboys. Not the cheapest model, but not the super premium one either. Most CCA.
Pros: most CCA

I replaced mine in my 2018 GLE63s with an aftermarket one from Auto Zone (Duralast Platinum). I finally got my start/stop feature back which I had forgotten about and also forgotten how annoying it was to have it ????
Pros: start/stop feature back
Cons: start/stop feature annoying
Both Duralast Golds. Went with Neverstart AGM from wally world about 2 months ago.
Last December, the OEM battery died and I replaced it with a new Duralast battery from AutoZone. Fast forward to today, the car wouldn’t start at all. Had to jump it just to get it running and drove straight to AutoZone to get it tested.
Cons: car wouldn’t start

Spouse has a 2021 etron, (some issues, inc battery recall), I had a 2022 etron with many issues which prompted my change to a 2025 SQ6. I’ve written to Audi Canada so many times regarding the etron issues with no resolution on any of them. I like the SQ6 but this will be my last Audi - worst experience I’ve ever had with any vehicle and manufacturer.
Cons: worst experience
Vehicle:
Audi
It is a great car to drive.\n\nThe battery range is very, very poor. On a cold day the range may be in the 120 range. It is exp naive to maintain as most parts on it are coded which means Audi dealer only
Pros: great car to drive
Cons: battery range very poor
Vehicle:
Audi
