Battery OEM KIA or Duralast

We have a Kia Niro PHEV and love it. I get around 3000km per tank because for the most part I'm just not using gas.

Jumped a cascadia '21 with my 2014 Kia Sorento

Duralast AGM. No leaking, minimal to no corrosion, god life, decent power, and most importantly it was readily available.

The battery in my EV6 lasts longer than my wife’s bladder can hold on a road trip and the speed of charging means that by the time we’ve headed into the services, toilet, maybe grab a coffee and we’re back at >80% basically every time. In good conditions we get 300 miles to a full battery, worst I’ve had is 260 and that’s with AC, heated seats, not driving like a granny etc.

Papa hat den eNiro von 2020 mit 64kwh Akku. Der hat laut OBD noch 96%soh nach 100.000km.

Der SoH von Papas eNiro 64kwh (2020) ist laut OBD Dongle nach 100.000km noch bei ca 96%. Bisher keine merklichen Reichweitenverluste. Kommt soweit wie am ersten Tag.

Of course you do. 16-19 kWh/100km to 20-23 kWh/100km. Kia EV6.

Both Duralast Golds. Went with Neverstart AGM from wally world about 2 months ago.

Last December, the OEM battery died and I replaced it with a new Duralast battery from AutoZone. Fast forward to today, the car wouldn\u2019t start at all. Had to jump it just to get it running and drove straight to AutoZone to get it tested.\n\nBattery tested good. Starter tested good.\nBut the alternator failed, specifically the charging current test.

I have a Kia Soul that goes through the OEM batteries every two-three years.
