Changed my battery this year on my 2005 e46 coupe. There wasn’t a date for the old one, but 3 codes and for one (H1B582092) ChatGPT said that it’s 2005 battery, which just sounds insane if true.
Pros: insane longevity
Vehicle:
BMW

my dishwasher has around 200 mile motorway range on a 64kWh net battery, which'll get me from Oxford to Darlington on a single charge, I could get to Newcastle if I camp behind a truck for most of it. My car is also stupidly inefficient for an EV, better EVs like a ID.3 or Megane could go further with smaller batteries.
Pros: 200 mile motorway range
Cons: stupidly inefficient
Vehicle:
Volvo
My 3 years old XC60 battery has been diagnosed as bad 55% last 2 weeks ago, I said to them keep it as I feel they are still good and road worthy. Gonna do a snapshot again at another 6 months to evaluate.
Pros: still good and road worthy
Cons: diagnosed as bad 55%
Vehicle:
Volvo XC60
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
Vehicle:
BMW
Dealer measured my 2021 m340xi battery at 700cca last week under load test (vs 850 cca capacity) and said battery needed to be replaced. Terminal was stamped 26th week of 2020.
Cons: needed replacement, low CCA
