Unless things have changed with Panasonic batteries the last 5-6 years, then I'm not aware of it. My Panasonic in my xA lasted 9.5 years, and finally died towards the end of 2016. At that point, I had about 85k miles on the car. About a year previous to replacing it (got a Optima Red top), I had left on the dome light over one late Fall night (so it was on a solid 12 hours), so that drastically drained the battery. I was able to revive it(charged it over 8-10 hours), and it lasted about 12-14 months past that point.
