## How to know which battery your Daihatsu Move 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.

Prefer to do it manually? Check the date of first registration on your V5C and match it against the generation table above. When a year straddles two generations, the body style decides it: five-door hatch, estate or coupé.

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.

## Frequently asked questions

### Which battery does a Daihatsu Move take?
It depends on the generation and engine: there are 1 compatible batteries in total, from 40 to 40 Ah and 330 to 330 A of cold cranking. The best sellers for this model are Car battery Varta A14 Dynamic SLI 12V 40Ah 330A. With your plate we tell you the exact one in seconds.

### How much does a Daihatsu Move battery cost?
Between 42.80 € and 42.80 €, 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.

### How do I know which generation my Move is?
By the registration year: Move II (1997-2002); Move I (1994-1999). 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.

### Can I fit a higher-capacity battery to my Daihatsu Move?
Yes, as long as the dimensions fit the tray and the terminal layout matches. More Ah and more cold-cranking amps do not harm the Daihatsu Move: the alternator charges it just the same and you gain margin in winter. Never go below the original values.
