My battery survived 13.5 years , all lockdowns and occasional use previously. No connected services and no screens in the car. 

Its the ‘connected services” that is the issue

Surely plugging a solar charger at night is a no no. Where does it plug in to, as the internal power socket is ignition feed so will not charge the battery. Would have to go direct to battery. 

I have had my 2000 Corolla a year now and never had a problem, I am retired so don't use it every day, it kept it's charge when I went on Holliday for 12 days, so what is the difference between cars.

I know That I will have problems in the future when the Battery ages
