## How to know which battery your FORD Ka+ 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.

## Start-Stop: which battery your Ka+ needs

Start-Stop on the modern Ka+ 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 FORD Ka+ take?
It depends on the generation and engine: there are 12 compatible batteries in total, from 41 to 65 Ah and 360 to 680 A of cold cranking. The best sellers for this model are Car battery Varta D24 12V 60Ah 540A, Start-Stop battery Varta N60 12V 60Ah 640A EFB, Car battery Varta B18 12V 44Ah 440A. With your plate we tell you the exact one in seconds.

### How much does a FORD Ka+ battery cost?
Between 44.19 € and 106.70 €, VAT included, depending on capacity and technology (lead-acid, EFB, 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 Ka+ is?
By the registration year: Ka+ III (2014-2025); Ka+ III Saloon (2014-2025); Ka II (2008-2016); Ka Van (2002-2005); Ka I (1996-2008). 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 battery with more amps?
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.

### How long does a FORD Ka+ battery last?
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.
