Battery OEM BMW or OEM Audi
Everyone likes to shit on BMW for being too complicated when it comes to having to register batteries with the car, but this is the result. Batteries in other cars die way more quickly.
Pros: last longer than others

BMW

Not going to say yes or no,but get a battery check before buying it ???? Bmw warranty covers the battery up 6year or 100.000km,so no more battery warranty.. It has 6 modules to replace(not 1 battery) and last time i checked it was around 1000 per piece without labour. My 2020 330e with 98000km had this check and it was at 84% state of health,so this one might not be looking so great.. but get it checked anyway
Pros: battery check recommended
Cons: no battery warranty, costly module replacement
Vehicle:
BMW
Mileage: 98000 km
I had 8 years on original battery on 2017 750i. I replaced it. It was barely holding 12V. Few functions were not working like stop/start and such.
Pros: 8 years longevity
Cons: barely holding 12V, functions not working

My new BMW X3 was reliable.
It reliably would NOT start whenever the temperature dropped below -20C, even with a battery tender on it. The dealer couldn’t find anything wrong with it.
Cons: would not start
Vehicle:
BMW X3
The battery lasted about two years. I had a company car at the time and only drove the BMW on my days off, and didn't drive long or far. The short, infrequent drives basically never allowed the battery to completely charge, resulting in it's early death.
Cons: early death, lasted two years
