Default Brand new Range Rover Sport flat battery

Hi I have a MY2018 RR Sport. It has died overnight on 4 occasions since I got it in May. Each time the AA have charged up the battery again. On the last occasion the battery was too damaged so a Landrover engineer came out with a new battery. I asked him if there was a fault with the vehicle. He asked me if I keep it locked. I said I didn't as I live half a mile up a track in a remote location. He said that's why it's going flat. Apparently the car thinks, because it's not locked, that I am about to hop in and drive it. It "waits" for me until the battery dies! Sounds ridiculous to me that such a "clever" car would die waiting for me..... Does anyone know if this is true or am I being sold a lie by Landrover to stop them having to fix it?
