    Original batteries

    A quick and dirty straw poll
    Year of your Mirage
    Original battery yes or no
    Kilometers or miles when you replaced the factory battery


    Zero, 2014 ES Plus 5MT, written off but not forgotten.
    Zero II, 2014 SE, 5MT, climate She's HOME now!
    Shelby AKA "Cute", 2017 ES 5MT, A/C.

    Mirage owners look at the world differently than everyone else, but in a better way
    We're driving the Beetle of the 21st century, the greatest small car now available!

    OEM Hitachi battery replaced 2023(?) at about 100000km (60 000 miles)
    Reason: prophylatic, due to capacity down to about 50%
