How long should a 2014 Volvo XC60 battery last in Massachusetts?

Expect 3–5 years for a 2014 Volvo XC60 battery under typical Massachusetts driving.

Seasonal temperature swings and short trips around Norwood and greater Boston can shorten battery life, especially if the vehicle sits for extended periods.

Is it worth replacing a 2014 Volvo XC60 battery at a dealer vs. an auto parts store?
