Battery OEM Nissan or OEM Mazda

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.

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.

We had a 2015 Nissan Leaf EV back in 2018. Fun little car but it only has an 80 mile range.

My battery conked out at the normal time after 6 years. But it still didn’t give me any warning that it was dying. 2019 Mazda 3 here

Worst part about Mazda cars - battery can silently die on you. Instead once you're ~3 years in you're gambling every time you go for a drive.

OEM batteries are crap, replace it with something better, preferably an EFB one. Also, a healthy battery should withstand that time and even more, so yours was definitely at its end.

My car was sitting in parking lot with engine OFF and ignition ON - Android Auto was working and headlights/interior lights -> after about 15min music stops playing and I thought okay it's energy saver mode let me start engine.

But NOPE, there were some error messages, and engine couldn't start - battery was DEAD, I read battery are shit on new Mazdas and didn't want to deal with it myself and get it towed because of warranty.

Mazda uses cheap batteries, I have had to swap them on my last two CX5s

My cx30’s 2023 battery died as I was coming to a stop sign. As I was rolling to the stop sign my breaks failed hit the car Infront of me and the could not get my car to start.
