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

Pros: original engine, transmission, starter
Cons: battery is slightly more costly
Vehicle: Mazda 3
Mileage: 322000 km

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.

Pros: preheat cabin from battery
Cons: gas engine stays on
Vehicle: Mazda
Mileage: 20000 km

My 2017 original battery stayed alive for 8 years and 148k miles fascinated me how long it lasted and the fact that the auxiliary battery is still fine

my dishwasher has around 200 mile motorway range on a 64kWh net battery, which'll get me from Oxford to Darlington on a single charge, I could get to Newcastle if I camp behind a truck for most of it. My car is also stupidly inefficient for an EV, better EVs like a ID.3 or Megane could go further with smaller batteries.

Pros: 200 mile motorway range
Cons: stupidly inefficient
Vehicle: Volvo

The battery is almost certainly dead.

Something else wrong with your car likely killed the battery and if that's the case buying a new battery will just result in the same problem pretty soon.

Cons: battery is dead

That battery is absolutely cooked, sounds like the cells have sulfated to hell or there's internal damage from deep cycling

The fact that it's only taking 72-94Wh when it should be 600Wh is screaming dead cells, and that voltage drop from 12.8 to 4v in 2 hours is not normal even with parasitic draw

Pros: screaming dead cells
Cons: battery is cooked

The battery is trash - if it was at 4v, the cells are either internally buckled/shorted - or the AGM is damaged and thus will not hold any charge (no capacity).

Pros: check charging voltage/current
Cons: battery is trash

Paid charging is problematic mainly because the T8 charges so slow. You'd have to leave your car at a charger for like 5.5 hours to fill the battery.

Cons: slow charging speed
Vehicle: Volvo
