Battery OEM Mazda or OEM Hyundai
Reviews
2014 Mazda 3 with 322,000 kms, it's doing fine. I'm still on original engine, transmission and starter. I use it almost daily in traffic. The only problem is that the battery is slightly more costly than a standard one, which offsets the miniscule fuel savings you're getting from the system
Pros: original engine, transmission, starter
Cons: battery is slightly more costly
Vehicle:
Mazda 3
Mileage: 322000 km
Schedule the car to start, pre condition the battery if cold, climate to start, hop in and go.
Pros: warm seat, warm car
Vehicle:
Hyundai
I have this car. Most important is that below -12C, the gas engine stays on, and won't let you drive around on electric alone. That accounts for several months of driving in our winters. Secondly, even in temps below +10C, you have less access to the battery's energy, so your range drops even independently from the usual cold temp range losses.
Pros: preheat cabin from battery
Cons: gas engine stays on
Vehicle:
Mazda
Mileage: 20000 km
Unser Ioniq5 hat nach 4 Jahren und knapp 60.000€ immer noch einen SoH von 100%. Haben zwecks Weiterverkauf extra auslesen und dokumentieren lassen. Zudem gibt Hyundai 5 Jahre allgemeine Garantie und 8 Jahre Garantie auf den Akku. Wir waren sehr zufrieden mit dem Kauf und mögen den IONiQ immer noch sehr.
Pros: 100% Batteriezustand, sehr zufrieden
Vehicle:
Hyundai
I can say from my experience if it drops below -20C a level one will only really keep the battery from losing power.
Pros: keep battery from losing power
Cons: only keep battery warm
Vehicle:
Hyundai
Depends on the car, both highway speeds:
- Our good EV, Ioniq 6: went from 18kWh/100km to about 26kWh/100km.
- Our bad car, EQB: Went from about 26-28kWh/100km to about 29-30kWh.
Pros: increased energy consumption
Vehicle:
Hyundai
My brother and I both have/had 6 speed 2015 Mazda3 (me the hatchback, him the sedan), and both of us had terrible issues with the Mazda brand batteries.
Cons: terrible issues
Vehicle:
Mazda
the only issue I have ever had with this car is the battery dying on me in under 2 years
Cons: battery died quickly
Vehicle:
Hyundai Elantra
Mileage: 71000 km
These are excellent cars but for some reason the batteries they use are bad. I had a 21 Mazda 3. The battery failed in 2023. They replaced it under warranty. The new battery lasted literally less than 6 months.
Cons: poor quality, short lifespan
Vehicle:
Mazda 3
Mazda OEM batteries are trash. Always have been. 35 years with Mazda and we stocked a ton of them.
Cons: poor quality, unreliable
