Battery OEM Nissan or OEM BMW

Mmmm interesting, u must have bought a lemon. I Bought a new Nissan Deisel Ute in 2018, been all over the country, does heaps of Ks and towing. Original Nissan battery is only just showing signs of needing replacement. I can't complain.

My Nissan Leaf battery, which everyone on Reddit with an electric car they bought yesterday is very sure will die any minute, has yet to lose any of its range after 6 years and 50k miles.

BMW here. No issues.

Tried them all at some point and whatever BMW OE does to those they last 2-3X longer. I literally just replaced a 14 year old battery last September….fuckin insane longevity with the OEM ones.

My 2015 Leaf has 148k on it and still drives like new. The battery is down to about 85% but this is pretty old lithium tech with very early thermal controls on it.

My EV is 8 this year. I've not noticed a drop in range over that time, but I'll find out when it goes in for its last battery health check before the warranty expires.

Ich fahre im Moment nen BMW i3 von 2015 mit nur rund 15 kWh Batteriekapazität und knapp 80k km runter. Da die eh so klein ist und das Auto auch kein großartiges Lademanagement hat, knall ich (und wahrscheinlich alle Vorbesitzer auch) die Batterie eigentlich so gut wie immer auf 100%, was man ja eigentlich vermeiden soll. Das Auto liegt über den Daumen gepeilt ca. 10-15% (eher 10) unter den Angaben, die man so im Netz findet.

I have a 2018. purchased in april of 2021. the previous owner had replaced the battery about 6 months prior to me buying the car, within 6 months, the replacement battery (nissan OEM) died. in november 2021 i got new battery from autozone, and it lasted just 3 years.

I went through the same last month. 2019 Nissan LEAF I bought as a Certified Used Car from a Nissan dealership out of state last year with only 6,998 miles on it. They included the Nissan Factory Wrap warranty and I also bought an extended power chain warranty ( with a really good discount) too. My car was 52 months old when I experienced the No Start condition due to the 12 volt battery.

We're having the same issue on our 22 Pathfinder. We're on our second battery. The first was replaced under warranty in January '24 after failing and stranding my wife out of town in the cold. It took 6 hours of testing before they would approve replacement.
