Battery Tesla or OEM Subaru
Reviews
Yeah they use undersized batteries, but just buy a good one and that's the end of it. my 2019 Legacy had is original battery after 4 years when I traded it in.
Cons: undersized batteries
Vehicle:
Subaru Legacy
Yes. Subaru batteries are hot garbage. Go third party all day. I stand by any AGM I can pick up at Autozone, since they stand behind the batteries they sell.
Pros: Autozone stands behind batteries
Cons: Subaru batteries hot garbage
Vehicle:
Subaru
My dealer replaced the battery, updated the firmware and did a parasitic drain test.
Pros: free replacement, updated firmware
Vehicle:
Subaru Outback
I have a ‘21 (Dec 2020) M3 LR AWD w/19”. I’ve put 52K miles on it so far. Generally speaking, I’ve seen very little degradation.
Pros: very little degradation
Cons: range overly optimistic
Mileage: 52000 km
I bought a used 2019 LR in 2020 and my estimated range is 302 miles with 48k miles.
Pros: 302 miles range
Mileage: 48000 km
How practical is a Tesla for a person with a 30-mile commute (each way)? Between my commute and running around, I probably spend $80 per week on gas.
Subaru has had a problem with their electrical systems since 2014. Batteries last 2 years, max. 2018 legacy is on its third battery in 4 years. 13,000 miles. $600.00 in batteries.
Cons: batteries last 2 years
Vehicle:
Subaru Legacy
Mileage: 20921 km
Subaru batteries aren't great in the cold either
Cons: poor in cold weather
My battery made for Subaru died on my 2017 Forester 2 weeks before the warranty ran out. SUBARU has their own problems with their batteries.
Cons: died quickly, problems with batteries
Vehicle:
Subaru Forester
Subaru batteries suck
Cons: poor quality
