## How to know which battery your DS DS-3 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.

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 DS-3 needs

Start-Stop on the modern DS-3 changes the rules: the battery takes hundreds of micro-cycles daily. The correct answer is EFB for basic systems and AGM where braking energy is recovered. Dropping to a conventional battery is the most expensive mistake you can make here.

## Frequently asked questions

### Which battery does a DS DS-3 take?
It depends on the engine. DS DS-3 owners mostly buy Varta N70 Dynamic EFB 70Ah (124.98 €), Exide EA770 Premium 77Ah (65.30 €) and Tudor TK720 AGM Microhybrid 72Ah (108.60 €) from us. The table shows the recommended battery for each engine with its price (VAT included) and a link to its page; with your number plate or VIN we tell you the exact one in seconds.

### How much does a DS DS-3 battery cost?
Between 64.95 € and 134.95 €, VAT included, depending on capacity and technology (EFB, lead-acid, AGM). 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 DS-3 is?
By the registration year: Ds 3 / Ds 3 Crossback (2018-2025); Ds 3 (2015-2019); Ds 3 Convertible (2015-2019). 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.

### How quickly can I get a battery for my DS DS-3?
Standard delivery to mainland Spain and Portugal takes 1-2 working days; other EU countries 4-7 working days. Each product page shows the exact lead time and whether express delivery is available.

### What happens if I fit a standard battery to a DS DS-3 with Start-Stop?
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.
