Battery OEM KIA or Duralast
I used the duralast from autozone.
I use duralast and get about 4 years on a battery. No complaints at all.
Pros: long lifespan, reliable performance
Vehicle:
Jeep Cherokee
Outback has a Duralast Gold. If it helps, we’ve had some harsh -30°f days the last few years since I upgraded my battery. No issues what so ever on it.
Pros: reliable in extreme cold
Vehicle:
Subaru Outback
I’ve had two duralast batteries in my 02 24v and they’re so old I honestly can’t remember when I put them in. But I’d say they’re about 6-7 years old, probably more. When those batteries finally give up I’ll definitely be getting new duralast batteries.
Pros: exceptional longevity, reliable
I recently got a Duralast Platinum battery and it has proven to be very good so far
Pros: very good performance
Vehicle:
Chevrolet Colorado

The battery you want is an AUX18L 20ah battery. I used [This battery](https://www.autozone.com/miscellaneous-non-automotive/power-sport-battery/duralast-gold-etx18l-group-btx24hl-agm-ready-to-ride-power-sport-battery-340-cca/350084_0_0?spps.s=4782) myself a month or so ago, it is an ETX18L and it has been working fine.
Pros: working fine
Vehicle:

Got a Duralast (I'm not driving an hour round-trip to the f'ing dealer to overpay for a battery). Another inconvenience on newer cars that's completely unnecessary. Really aggravating. Hoping it clears itself out shortly.
Cons: inconvenience on newer cars
I've gone through two VW batteries in 32K miles under three years. They suck. Just replaced it with a Duralast Gold from Autozone which has a 3 year full replacement warranty and 5 year prorated.
Pros: full replacement warranty
Cons: batteries suck
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Golf
Mileage: 51500 km
we see many 2 year old Duralast batteries that have failed.
Cons: failed after 2 years
