Honda Accord battery: what each engine takes, with prices

Frequently asked questions

Which battery does a Honda Accord take?

It depends on the engine. Honda Accord owners mostly buy Varta E44 Dynamic SLI 77Ah (85.40 €), Varta B32 Dynamic SLI 45Ah (47.95 €) and Exide EA770 Premium 77Ah (65.30 €) 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 Honda Accord battery cost?

Between 47.60 € and 115.30 €, VAT included, depending on capacity and technology (lead-acid, EFB). 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 Accord is?

By the registration year: Accord X Saloon (2017-2025); Accord IX Saloon (2012-2025); Accord IX Coupe (2012-2025); Accord Hatchback (2009-2025); Accord VIII Estate (2008-2025); Accord VIII II (2008-2025). 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 Honda Accord?

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 Honda Accord: the alternator charges it just the same and you gain margin in winter. Never go below the original values.

What happens if I fit a standard battery to a Honda Accord 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.
