Odyssey agm65 battery you can buy this battery on the link I added or on Amazon with free shipping. This is a perfect swap for an OEM battery. Truly Plug and play. Learned this from someone on Reddit and decided to try it myself and it works perfectly.

Pros: perfect swap, works perfectly

Cons: no vent plug hole

Part number: AGM65

Odyssey AGM. Super durable, sits well if you aren\u2019t riding much and far less likely to leak.

It's a lovely car, but very bad on the efficiency. We have a 55 and the range varies from 150 in the winter to 250 in the summer. Honestly, for the money you'll struggle to get more car, it's very comfortable, quick, and has mountains of room inside. Ours is a 2019 on 70k miles, and has had zero issues

Pros: very comfortable, quick

Cons: bad on the efficiency

Vehicle: Audi

Mileage: 112654 km

I just replaced my OEM Subaru battery on my '22 with an Odyssey AGM 35 for about $370.00. The original OEM battery lasted about 3 1/2 years, let\u2019s see how long this one will last.

Pros: Odyssey AGM 35

Cons: OEM lasted 3.5 years

Vehicle: Subaru Forester

Part number: 35

I drive a 15 year old gas powered Audi Q7. Still runs like new. My issue with EVs is you can't just keep them tuned up when they're old. No matter how good of care you take of it, the battery will decay and lose capacity.

Pros: runs like new

Cons: battery will decay

Vehicle: Audi Q7

That said, do not buy another Subaru battery. They are way over priced and extreme garbage. You'll be replacing it again in a year to 2 years; they are notorious for having failed cells in just a couple years. If you want something that will last a long time buy an AGM from Odyssey.

Pros: last a long time

Cons: failed cells, over priced

Vehicle: Subaru

Spouse has a 2021 etron, (some issues, inc battery recall), I had a 2022 etron with many issues which prompted my change to a 2025 SQ6. I’ve written to Audi Canada so many times regarding the etron issues with no resolution on any of them. I like the SQ6 but this will be my last Audi - worst experience I’ve ever had with any vehicle and manufacturer.

Cons: worst experience

Vehicle: Audi
