## How to know which battery your Hyundai Equus Centennial takes

The real shortcut is your registration number. It settles generation, engine and factory battery in seconds — exactly where most people get it wrong when buying.

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.

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 Equus Centennial needs

Start-Stop on the modern Equus Centennial 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 Hyundai Equus Centennial take?
It depends on the generation and engine: there are 2 compatible batteries in total, from 95 to 100 Ah and 800 to 830 A of cold cranking. The best sellers for this model are Car battery Varta H3 Dynamic SLI 12V 100Ah 830A, Car battery Varta G3 Dynamic SLI 12V 95Ah 800A. With your plate we tell you the exact one in seconds.

### How much does a Hyundai Equus Centennial battery cost?
Between 95.20 € and 109.90 €, 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 Equus Centennial is?
By the registration year: Equus / Centennial II (2009-2016); Equus / Centennial I (1999-2009). 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.

### What happens if I fit a standard battery to a Hyundai Equus Centennial 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.

### How do I know the battery in my Hyundai Equus Centennial is worn out?
Typical signs: sluggish cranking in the cold, headlights dimming on start-up, a battery warning on the dash or electronics resetting. A workshop can check resting voltage (below 12.4 V means discharged) and cranking capacity in a minute.
