Don't worry about the battery unless it starts giving you trouble. In 4-5 years? Then don't waste money on an overpriced Lithium battery. Sealed AGM batteries are nice because you never have to check the electrolyte level. But a cheap wet fill battery will work just fine.

Can we use wet fill ones with the battery being sideways?

Depth of custard?
Re: Lithium vs. Gel ??
Custard is really interesting stuff, you can walk on it without sinking.

Re: Lithium vs. Gel ??
I wonder if they make an AGM f9r our scooter. When it was time to replace the battery on one of our scooters, I had tried to purchase and install a higher amp battery only to find that it would not fit in that tiny space. I have heard of others purchasing a lithium battery for theirs because they were smaller, but I haven't heard of anyone being able to purchase and install an AGM for a small scooter.
