About this deal

As you can see below, we recently replaced an older Varta battery with a DriveTec alternative and the difference was instant because the older battery couldn’t hold a charge for longer than a few days. However, during our testing, as well as the performance of the batteries, we also analyse their quality in terms of their carry handles and terminals. Look after a car battery and they can last for years, but treat them poorly and they can be destined for the recycling centre in a matter of months. I bought a new Citroen C4 Picasso in 2014. I complained about the car to the main dealers because the ‘Stop-Start wasn’t working and I was told there is nothing wrong with it just need to drive it more. I persevered with the car and the stop-start would only work after driving over 100 miles. Recently I had a problem with the car and because of Covid 19 couldn’t get it fixed . When I finally did there were loads of faults diagnosed and I was told it was because of a poor battery. I bought this battery and everything works as it should. Not a good advert for main dealer diagnosis but a great one for Bosch batteries I bought a new Citroen C4 Picasso in 2014.

Although car batteries can last many years, they’ll eventually require replacement when they become faulty. Therefore, as we own multiple cars, we replace car batteries far more often than the average motorist, which means that we have experience with a variety of batteries in terms of their size and brand. With regards to our testing, we tested batteries from a variety of brands and replaced multiple-sized batteries. Stop start means that your car’s engine cuts out when you stop to save fuel and cut harmful emissions. Faulty products will be replaced as soon as we are able to verify the fault and ship another to you. Enhanced Flooded Batteries (EFB) are a step up from lead acid batteries and are suitable for cars with start-stop systems since they’re able to handle upwards of 250,000 starts in their lifetime. Which might sound like a lot, but start-stop systems can cut the engine dozens of times every journey. Even so, you can expect these batteries to last up to six years – much longer than a lead acid battery.

They only tend to be factory fitted in more premium and high-end vehicles. However, it may be beneficial to switch from EFB to AGM if your car has a lot of on-board tech, or if you frequently make journeys so short that the battery is unable to recharge. Bosch car batteries are known for their reliability, performance, and durability. They are designed to deliver consistent power and provide a long service life. Bosch offers a variety of battery types to cater to different vehicle models and requirements, including conventional lead-acid batteries, enhanced flooded batteries (EFB) for start-stop systems, and absorbent glass mat (AGM) batteries for vehicles with advanced electrical systems.

Support

Larger Commercial & Marine batteries which need to be sent via pallet may incur an extra postal charge. AGM stands for Absorbed Glass Mat. That’s because the electrolyte in AGM batteries is absorbed in fibre glass mats, rather than free flowing around the lead plates. Why Are AGM batteries Better Than Standard Flooded Batteries?
