Battery Exide or OEM KIA

Amaron does last a whole lot longer than exide which just starts giving issues after warranty period. I had an issu in both my car and bike previously dues to exide. Switched to amaron once and did not give any issues till now.

Amaron all the way! I've always had to replace my exide batteries way before their actual expiry and their warranty claim is pathetic.

Both my Unicorn 160 and Access 125 have Exide. Zero issues.

Amaron is better, Exide has too much crank and start issues

I have amaron in scooty, Exide in Suzuki Gixxer and in my swift.

The Exide in my Gixxer laster 5 years plus! So I guess that's nice

Exide, good battery life and no hassle warranty claims.

In 2021 am achizitionat o baterie de pe autokarma si inca o folosesc si merge probleme. In cazul meu, am achizitionat o baterie Exide(auto stop EFB 60AH- approx 430 lei), pentru o Mazda 3 benzina.

the cars are decent, the customer service at the dealers, hit or miss.

the Vancouver (Coquitlam) dealership i bought my Kia from knew jack squat about my car - I basically just needed them to sell me a car, that I knew more about at the time of sale than they did.

went to a different one, and got a much better experience, they were willing to sit down and talk to you about what the problems were, what options were, etc. So in short, the early EVs (like the one I drive) were kinda iffy depending on your experience, could be great could be terrible, but the classic ioniq is one I would hands down trade in for. The extra cobalt inside the cells means the degradation happens less, it doesn't overheat as quickly, charges reasonably fast, and more efficient than tesla :p

Exide Battery (demolished)

I'm at the third battery at 7000 miles and 6 months (2024 niro ev) and the battery is dead again this morning, like wtf.
