vs
Battery OEM BMW or OEM Audi
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
Vehicle:
Audi
Mileage: 112654 km
I’ve had my iX for 2.5 years and have logged 122k miles. I haven’t noticed any degradation in battery capacity. Just the normal summer/winter fluctuations (live in Midwest).
Pros: no battery degradation
Vehicle:
BMW
Mileage: 196339 km
I had one with the battery that lasted just under 12 years.... Old original BMW batteries are built different! Especially if the car is driven regularly.
Pros: lasted 12 years, built different
Same with my 2008 BMW 535d. 900ah and still going strong
Pros: still going strong
Vehicle:
BMW
I had a battery in a 93 BMW last forever like that
Pros: lasted forever
Vehicle:
BMW
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
Can confirm, worked at a battery store for a few years throughout college. Audis for some reason always lasted much longer than any other car brand.
My S4 battery is going on 6 years and it pops off like a brand new battery in Minnesota weather.
Pros: lasts much longer
Vehicle:
Audi S4
Yes, 2009 Audi TT, $800 as part of my yearly service in LA. Complained to Service advisor about the labor, and he took 20% off the battery portion.
Pros: 20% off
Cons: expensive labor
Vehicle:
Audi TT
Based on these comments, I definitely replaced my battery last year wrong. I just ripped out the old one and slapped in the new one. I didn\u2019t code anything haha
Pros: replaced battery
Cons: didn't code
Vehicle:
Audi S4
530e with a little over 20,000 miles shows 10 miles electric range on a nice summer day. It used to show 15 when new. BMW said that the drop was not warranty worthy.
Cons: reduced electric range, not warranty worthy
Vehicle:
BMW
Mileage: 32187 km
