Crappy "genuine VW battery/parts" for you. Any of my other OEM Japanese car batteries lasted much longer. My 2011 Nissan 370z OEM battery lasted 7 years. It could've probably gone even longer if not for without driving it for long during the covid pandemic.
Pros: long lifespan
Cons: crappy quality
Vehicle:
Nissan
Original battery in my GF’s Elantra finally died today after 10 years.
Pros: long battery life
Vehicle:
Hyundai Elantra
Put one in my Frontier last winter, and had more consistent starts. Cost half of Nissan dealership with higer CCA.
Pros: consistent starts, higher CCA
I have a 2015 Nissan LEAF SV. In -25C or colder (and to be fair, it's rarely -25C (not counting the windchill) during the day), with moderate heat on (set heat to 19C or less) plus heated steering wheel and heated seats (both of which use relatively very little power), I can lose a good 60% of my range
Pros: save a lot on fuel
Cons: battery degradation
Vehicle:
Nissan Leaf
Saturday morning, we pull up to the house outside of Palmdale to this scene - a beat ass Chevy Celebrity trying to jump start an even more thrashed Nissan Stanza. The battery was fully charged, but it wouldn't start because it was still in 'drive.' After almost burning the thing down with improperly attached jumper cables, we were ready for a test drive. It ran... kinda. It was firing on 3...sometimes 4 cylinders, and the oil was overfilled by about 2 quarts.

they do suffer more with battery degredation due to crap thermal management (older models).
Cons: more battery degradation, crap thermal management
Vehicle:
Nissan Leaf
My I6 battery died after 4mo and 2200km (1370mi). Car is sitting at the dealership awaiting warranty decision.
Cons: battery died quickly
Mileage: 2200 km
I went to an official dealership and they told me the battery is faulty, and replacing it would cost around 185 euro, labor included. I checked online and it seemed like in the Netherlands a comparable battery costs between 85 and 120 euro.
Cons: expensive, high labor cost
Vehicle:
Hyundai
Our other car, the 2016 Leaf, kinda is the embodiment of all the negative talking points you hear about, since it's an older EV: It uses an outdated & slower charging standard, has a small battery, and has significant battery degradation (29%) since Nissan decided, in their infinite wisdom, to not give the Leaf a coolant loop for the batteries. (Heat is the biggest killer for EV batteries).
Cons: significant battery degradation, no battery coolant loop, outdated charging standard, small battery
Vehicle:
Nissan Leaf
