Der SoH von Papas eNiro 64kwh (2020) ist laut OBD Dongle nach 100.000km noch bei ca 96%. Bisher keine merklichen Reichweitenverluste. Kommt soweit wie am ersten Tag.
Pros: sehr gute Batterielebensdauer, keine Reichweitenverluste
Vehicle:
Kia
Mileage: 100000 km
I’m in the UAE, where summers hit around 50°C. This Forester is my first car with auto start-stop, and I’m impressed that the battery lasted a solid 4 years. With my driving habits (lots of short runs), my previous cars’ batteries would barely survive 1–1.5 years. This one lasted more than double that.
Pros: long lifespan, good in hot climate
Vehicle:
Subaru Forester
Eversince i did not have problem on my battery Bought my SUB in WA But we moved here in AZ last 11/2023 Just today my battery ended☹️so after 7yrs need a new battery. Its too hot here AZ like right now 7:15 pm still 110’super hot

Cons: ended due to heat
Vehicle:
Kia Sorento

Still on vanilla battery. As part of my wife's start process is start car, press button to turn off auto off. Seems to be working.
Pros: long lasting, working well
Vehicle:
Subaru Forester
Mileage: 120000 km
Another is that the OEM Kia battery just sucks…they fail. The fix is to get a new battery that doesn’t suck. Kia will replace the dead one within warranty but you’ll get another dodgy OEM battery. Most people seem to trend towards buying a good AGM aftermarket battery for this.
Pros: good AGM aftermarket battery
Cons: dodgy OEM battery
Vehicle:
Kia
