Battery rental contract expires after 10 years, what now?

    The topic had reached me more and more by email and other ways in the last few weeks. So I wrote a detailed article about it. Since I am sure that there will also be lively discussions, also this thread. Here you can exchange views on the topic and report on your experiences. :)

    Battery rental contract expires after 10 years, what now?
    The first smarties with a battery rental contract are now turning 10 years old and in the coming months and years this of course will increase. This raises a question I'm getting asked more and more:
    The 10-year rental contract is expiring and I received an offer from smart to buy a battery. Should I buy it?

    In this article I would like to give you an overview of your options and of course I will also tell you how I will deal with the rental battery of my own 2013 smart.
