Rating 4.0

I got just over 7 years from the factory Varta battery in my old 2015 MK7. It was the smaller H4 size and always started flawlessly in the Canadian winter. It ended up failing in the early summer. It cranked rather slowly one morning and the voltage refused to go above 12.3, even after charging. It barely started when I went to get the new battery. I was lucky enough to not get stranded.

Pros: long lifespan (7 years), flawless cold starts
Cons: sudden failure

Got a Japanese one: Varta Automotive EFB Car Battery Q-85/115D23L 12v 70Ah 660A (EN) just over 1/2 the price of an Australian made Q-85. Got 6.5 years out of original from Japan 2019 using stop start most of the time.

Pros: 6.5 years of use
Part number: Q85/115D23L

I've had my Mach E for about four years and nearly 100k miles. I've never worried about the 80% charging and always charged to 100%. I can't tell a huge difference in the range after four years.

Pros: no huge range difference
Mileage: 160000 km

I had the same issue with my MY2024 XL Hybrid constantly going into deep sleep mode. There is a recall for MY2022 and MY2023 Mavericks Hybrids due to a bad 12V battery. I took it to the dealer anyways... After their battery test, mine FAILED and they replaced the 12V with an new AGM battery (free under the OG 3yr/36k mi warranty).

Pros: replaced with AGM battery
Cons: deep sleep mode
Vehicle: Ford Maverick

In keeping my 07 f150 xl long bed regular cab till my feet go through the floor and I gotta push it up the exit ramps.

I met a guy with a 25, trying to get a replacement battery that has to be done at the dealership.

A $80k truck that you're basically renting from Ford because of all the gatekeeping software crap- and most of it experimental with the buyers being the test market.

Pros: keep until feet go through floor
Cons: dealership battery replacement, gatekeeping software
Vehicle: Ford
