Battery OEM Chevrolet or Duralast

Generally speaking the ownership cost is low. I have had a 2013 Volt since new. I hardly ever need the engine to run, so it has had 6 oil changes in 12 years. I have done no other engine maintenance. It still has its original traction battery and is still performing well.

At 10 years and 330,000 kms my Volt battery didn't even show degradation.

Mine is ten years old. It's a Chevy volt so it's a small battery and has over 3000 cycles and done 130000 km. It's at 87% original capacity.

Just a heads up I had same issue with my Titan and it was the battery. I purchased a cheaper battery and 6 months in I get only a click when trying to start truck. Sometimes would start sometimes not. Then I bought the same battery again to see if that would fix the issue. This time it didn\u2019t start at all with the same type of battery, tested 100% charge and 100% battery life. So I said let me try buying a better quality battery just to see if anything happens, sure enough the truck started. It has kept starting ever since.

Duralast is a decent brand, I’ve always went with the gold, no real reason just that it’s what was in the car before.

my 2010 4x4 needs a new battery. This one lasted 4 years Duralast Gold.

I drove a first gen Chevy Volt before I bought my 2022 MYP. I actually loved the Volt but it didn't have much range. The Chevy Volt had about 37 miles of range and my round trip to work and back was 34 miles. I drove that car on all electric 95% of the time.

If you actually worked at AutoZone and knew anything you know the duralast golds are decent.

Chevy Bolt, almost caught fire they bought it off me

Don't do Duralast...they don't last.
