Frequently asked questions

It depends on the generation and engine: there are 3 compatible batteries in total, from 40 to 44 Ah and 330 to 420 A of cold cranking. The best sellers for this model are Car battery Varta B36 Dynamic SLI 12V 44Ah 420A, Car battery Varta A13 Dynamic SLI 12V 40Ah 330A, Car battery Varta A16 Dynamic SLI 12V 40Ah 340A. With your plate we tell you the exact one in seconds.
Between 44.80 € and 65.30 €, VAT included, depending on capacity and technology (lead-acid). Start-Stop versions (AGM or EFB) sit at the top of the range because they withstand many more cycles.
By the registration year: 500 Hatchback Van (2003-2004); 500 Hatchback (1997-2025); 500 Convertible (1996-2025); 500 Estate Van (1990-1996). If your year falls in the overlap between two generations, tell them apart by body type (hatchback, estate or coupé) or use the plate finder, which settles it with no doubt.
It lasts only a few months: Start-Stop puts the battery through hundreds of cycles a day and a conventional battery cannot cope. The ECU may also disable the automatic stop function. Always fit EFB or AGM, the same technology as the original.
On most versions, yes: disconnect the negative terminal first, then the positive, release the clamp and fit the new battery in reverse order. On Start-Stop models or cars with battery management (BMS), register the new battery with a diagnostic tool so the ECU adjusts charging.

Which battery does a Aixam 500 take?

It depends on the engine and on whether it has Start-Stop. The table shows the recommended battery for each Aixam 500 engine with its price, VAT included; with your number plate or VIN we tell you the exact one in seconds.

How to know which battery your Aixam 500 takes

Easiest of all is the number plate lookup: those few characters tell us the precise variant, the engine and the original battery, so you need not check anything else.

Another route is the vehicle paperwork: the registration date places you in one of the generations listed. In the overlap years, body style is the detail that separates them.

As a final check, look at the battery currently fitted: the label shows capacity (Ah) and cold cranking amps (A). Always replace with equal or higher figures, never lower, and keep the same dimensions and terminal layout.

Start-Stop: which battery your 500 needs

The later 500 generations run Start-Stop, which puts the battery through hundreds of micro-cycles a day. These cars require EFB (basic Start-Stop) or AGM (Start-Stop with regenerative braking): fitting a conventional battery instead cuts service life to a few months and the ECU may disable the function. Rule of thumb: never downgrade from the technology fitted at the factory.
