I have a 10 year old yellow top Optima (not even the nicest thing out there) that starts a 440 (often 9 months between starts) every time. I haven't even put a tender on it in the last 5 years.
We have a Kia Niro PHEV and love it. I get around 3000km per tank because for the most part I'm just not using gas.
Optima yellow top. It's around $300 ish. The last one was replaced after a decade. The new one I have will probably be the last one.
Jumped a cascadia '21 with my 2014 Kia Sorento
Yellow top , my recommendation ; I do carry multiple lights on the taco .size 35
Mind you this throttle body is brand new.
My husband\u2019s used Kia EV 6 \u201822 had a 12volt die. Bought a new one under $200 and used a YouTube video to replace.
Those Optima Red, Yellow and Blue tops used to be the cat's ass 20 years ago, but quality has fallen off big time in recent years
Optima batteries have, in my experience, gone downhill over the last few years. For their price, I don’t think they’re worth considering.
Mine died at about 44k. Good news is Kia is fully covering the replacement and the mileage warranty restarts with the new battery
