Battery OEM Nissan or Exide
Reviews
Swift petrol 2017 model with AGS. The OEM Exide battery lasted until 2022 (5 years). I actually ruined the OEM battery by overfilling it with distilled water ????. Else, it might have lasted longer. Got a Bosch battery after that and it's still running with no issues.
Pros: long battery life
Cons: overfilling ruined battery
Vehicle:
Suzuki Swift
Varta ist nur noch ein Name, Exide habe ich schon lange in Nutzung. Die erste nach 11 Jahren vorsorglich getauscht und die zweite ist jetzt schon seit 12 Jahren in Betrieb.
Pros: lange in Nutzung
Mmmm interesting, u must have bought a lemon. I Bought a new Nissan Deisel Ute in 2018, been all over the country, does heaps of Ks and towing. Original Nissan battery is only just showing signs of needing replacement. I can't complain.
Pros: showing signs of replacement

My Nissan Leaf battery, which everyone on Reddit with an electric car they bought yesterday is very sure will die any minute, has yet to lose any of its range after 6 years and 50k miles.
Pros: no range loss
Vehicle:
Nissan Leaf
Mileage: 80467 km
My 2015 Leaf has 148k on it and still drives like new. The battery is down to about 85% but this is pretty old lithium tech with very early thermal controls on it.
Pros: drives like new, low maintenance
Cons: battery down to 85%

Mileage: 148000 km
a used 2013-2015 Nissan Leaf. Tennessee winters should be at least somewhat mild so they should be gentler on the battery, and it's best if you can park it somewhere in the shade. They often go for $2k-$3k private sale around me because the battery life is fading and nobody wants a car with 40-60 miles of range after "filing up." Slow charging using a standard 110V outlet is better for the battery and should suffice for your use case as long as you can charge overnight and maybe longer over weekends.
Pros: slow charging sufficient, gentler on battery in mild winters
Cons: fading battery life, limited range
Vehicle:
Nissan Leaf
2013 Leaf! We loved it but the ~90 mile range made it a work and home only car.
Pros: loved the car
Cons: limited range

replace battery twice..something is draining it..and 3 x not starting...had to use a jump starter to get it to turn over... no codes registering and dash indicators are not helping..once I get it running all warnings disappear....so I drive around with when is it going to happen again....
Cons: battery draining, not starting

Shop Forman and Nissan tech of 15 years, lately we have seen a ton of frontiers come in for battery discharging. Some will be batteries that do test bad, some have been discharging for no reason even after confirming no parasitic drains, some believe the Telematics control unit is staying on/relaying to Nissan servers causing drains. With the variable charging systems controlled by the ECM/IPDM all of it just seems to be a recipe for electrical disaster. Not a fan of any of it
Cons: battery discharging, electrical disaster
