Frequently asked questions

It depends on the generation and engine: there are 6 compatible batteries in total, from 60 to 95 Ah and 680 to 850 A of cold cranking. The best sellers for this model are Start-Stop battery Varta A7 12V 70Ah 760A AGM, Start-Stop battery Varta A6 12V 80Ah 800A AGM, Start-Stop battery Varta N70 12V 70Ah 760A EFB. With your plate we tell you the exact one in seconds.
Between 107.40 € and 179.99 €, VAT included, depending on capacity and technology (AGM, EFB). Start-Stop versions (AGM or EFB) sit at the top of the range because they withstand many more cycles.
By the registration year: 2 Active Tourer II (2021-2025); 2 Gran Coupe (2019-2025); 2 Gran Tourer (2014-2025); 2 Convertible (2014-2021); 2 Gran Tourer Van (2014-2025); 2 Active Tourer I (2013-2021). 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.
Yes, as long as the dimensions fit the tray and the terminal layout matches. More capacity (Ah) and more cold cranking (A) do not harm the vehicle: the alternator charges it the same and you gain margin in winter. What you must never do is go below the original figures.
Between 4 and 6 years in normal use. Start-Stop batteries (AGM/EFB) tend to last slightly less in city driving because of the number of starts, but they are designed for that cycling. If the car sits unused for weeks or you notice slow cranking in the cold, get it checked.

How to know which battery your BMW 2 Series takes

The quickest and safest route is to enter your number plate: we identify the exact version, its engine and the battery fitted at the factory, with no room for error.

You can also work it out yourself: find the registration date in the vehicle documents and locate it in the table. If the year overlaps two generations, the body style — hatch, estate or coupé — tells them apart.

Before ordering, inspect your existing battery: its label lists the Ah and the starting amps. The replacement must match or beat both — never fall short — and share the same size and positive terminal side.

Start-Stop: which battery your 2 Series needs

The later 2 Series 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.
