Battery Deka or OEM KIA

OEM KIA Battery

Also, most car manufacturers know that customers are generally bad at doing the "correct" thing, so they protect their batteries by design.

When you are charging to 100% you are actually closer to 95-97%, when you run your car to 0% it's actually 5-7%

All because it's easier to show you another number and build the protection into the system, than to change people's habits.

Pros: batteries protected by design
Vehicle: Kia

You can get an Deka AUX18L from batterymart.com for $159 shipped to your door. Deka is the OE manufacturer of the BMW battery for the i3. My original battery lasted 7 years, it’s a no-brainer.

Pros: lasted 7 years
Vehicle: BMW
Part number: AUX18L

I bought a ‘24 GT with 5k miles and regret it every day. The battery had to be replaced at 9k miles and we had a loaner for a 5 weeks. Everyday issues like Carplay not working 50% of the time and the backup sensors being way too sensitive drive me insane.

Cons: battery replaced, carplay issues
Vehicle: Kia
Mileage: 5000 km
