2014 Mazda 3 with 322,000 kms, it's doing fine. I'm still on original engine, transmission and starter. I use it almost daily in traffic. The only problem is that the battery is slightly more costly than a standard one, which offsets the miniscule fuel savings you're getting from the system
Schedule the car to start, pre condition the battery if cold, climate to start, hop in and go.
I have this car. Most important is that below -12C, the gas engine stays on, and won't let you drive around on electric alone. That accounts for several months of driving in our winters. Secondly, even in temps below +10C, you have less access to the battery's energy, so your range drops even independently from the usual cold temp range losses.
Unser Ioniq5 hat nach 4 Jahren und knapp 60.000€ immer noch einen SoH von 100%. Haben zwecks Weiterverkauf extra auslesen und dokumentieren lassen. Zudem gibt Hyundai 5 Jahre allgemeine Garantie und 8 Jahre Garantie auf den Akku. Wir waren sehr zufrieden mit dem Kauf und mögen den IONiQ immer noch sehr.
I can say from my experience if it drops below -20C a level one will only really keep the battery from losing power.
Depends on the car, both highway speeds:
- Our good EV, Ioniq 6: went from 18kWh/100km to about 26kWh/100km.
- Our bad car, EQB: Went from about 26-28kWh/100km to about 29-30kWh.
My brother and I both have/had 6 speed 2015 Mazda3 (me the hatchback, him the sedan), and both of us had terrible issues with the Mazda brand batteries.
the only issue I have ever had with this car is the battery dying on me in under 2 years
These are excellent cars but for some reason the batteries they use are bad. I had a 21 Mazda 3. The battery failed in 2023. They replaced it under warranty. The new battery lasted literally less than 6 months.
Mazda OEM batteries are trash. Always have been. 35 years with Mazda and we stocked a ton of them.
