MAJOR CAR BATTERY BRANDS RANKED WORST TO BEST

3. DieHard

DieHard is the classic “dad” recommendation, and it’s still a solid pick today. Now owned by Advance Auto Parts, the brand hasn’t lost its edge. Batteries are still made by Clarios and come in standard lead-acid or AGM versions, with solid warranties.

In 2022, DieHard was the first auto battery to get UL’s circular economy validation — meaning their AGM batteries are made from recycled old ones. That’s a big win for anyone thinking about the environmental impact.
