Battery YUASA or OEM BMW

I have been driving a 2022 330e since March 2022 and haven’t seen any battery degradation to date. In the NY winter I still get at least 20 miles on a full charge, in the summer 23-30.

I set off to test the X5 battery to see if degradation was better or worse than my iPhone's 10% degradation over one year. We've driven 29,996 miles, 15,296.5 electric. My best all-electric range achieved was about 41 miles when new. After one year, I achieved exactly 41 all-electric miles from a full charge in ideal conditions. Zero percent degradation as measured by this test. It appears temperature and AC/heat use have much greater impacts on range than actual battery health at this stage. Results look better than expected for long term ownership and residual value.

I’ve always used Yuasa and always get at least 7 year’s life

I had an oem yuasa last like 15 years...replaced it with another yuasa thats over 4 years old now...no issues so

I ran a yuasa in my victory for nine years. It is now on its second life in my lawn tractor- 2 years and still going strong. Battery tenders for the win.

A Yuasa is the best I've ever found.

My Scout sixty battery just died after 5 years. The longest living battery I've had. I went looking for replacements and due to availability and quality I chose the Yuasa YTX14AH-BS. I've used Yuasa in all my previous motorcycles (BMWs) with no problems so when I found they also made batterys for Indians, I bought one. That was just two weeks ago but so far no problems.

If you change the type from flooded wet cell to AGM, you must code the BCM to change the charging parameters.

I’m just pulling out a 4+ year old Yuasa that only started giving me problems about 2 months ago. Gonna try the $30 Mighty Max special this time since it seems to have some favorable reviews and we’ll see what happens. ????

my bmw would say this, a year after having a new oem batt installed, and only in the winter, dealer couldn't find the problem, so I traded it in for another subaru because parasitic draws are the last thing you want in a german car
