I live in Ontario, and my car’s battery life is almost 10 years and for motorcycle about 5 years.
Normal, acid type.

Quality of the battery plays a role, especially with AGM types.

An old school lead-acid battery can last up to 25 years if prudent care is taken. Farmers do this all the time with equipment. However again, battery quality is important.

Recommendations? My 2014 is on the original still. I think the battery should probably be replaced at some point, maybe. I will probably grab a gel replacement if that matters. Seems to be a solid middle ground technology between lead-acid and lithium from everything I have read.
