Battery OEM Toyota or OEM KIA

OEM Toyota Battery

I bought a Toyota Truestart for $224 USD with taxes. Swapped it in the dealer parking lot in about 5 minutes, took the old one back in for the core charge.

Pros: easy to swap
Vehicle: Toyota

I'm at over 90k miles in a 2022 Kia EV6 and haven't had an ICCU issue. All I've done outside normal wear and tear like tires is upgraded to an AGM 12V battery to solve crappy OEM battery problems

Pros: upgraded to AGM battery
Cons: crappy OEM battery
Vehicle: Kia
Mileage: 90000 km

Had the same problem today... Battery died (ok, a few cold days in Belgium , nights up to -5°C) and assistance for jumpstarting it was necessary, luckily I had autoclub membership. Car is only 30 months old. We drive it multiple times a week for shopping and trips to the seaside. Checked the car in to the Toyota garage and test of the battery was negative, battery was dead. I was very pleased they replaced the battery with a new one under warranty!

Pros: new battery under warranty
Cons: battery died, HUD issue
Vehicle: Toyota Yaris

Another is that the OEM Kia battery just sucks…they fail. The fix is to get a new battery that doesn’t suck. Kia will replace the dead one within warranty but you’ll get another dodgy OEM battery. Most people seem to trend towards buying a good AGM aftermarket battery for this.

Pros: good AGM aftermarket battery
Cons: dodgy OEM battery
Vehicle: Kia
