«La he colocado en un Kia Sportage 1.6 GDI del 2016. No lleva Start-Stop. Lo hice yo mismo en poco más de 5 minutos. Encaja perfectamente en el sitio. La anterior me duró casi 7 años. Ya le costaba un poco arrancar. Con esta lo hace a la pri»

Frequently asked questions
- It depends on the engine. KIA Picanto owners mostly buy Varta A13 Dynamic SLI 40Ah (48.40 €), Varta A14 Dynamic SLI 40Ah (42.80 €) and Varta A15 Dynamic SLI 40Ah (43.80 €) 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.
- Between 42.80 € and 118.90 €, VAT included, depending on capacity and technology (lead-acid, AGM, EFB). Start-Stop versions (AGM or EFB) sit at the top of the range because they withstand many more cycles.
- By the registration year: Picanto III (2017-2025); Picanto II (2011-2018); Picanto I (2004-2012). 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.
- On most versions, yes: disconnect the negative terminal first, then the positive, release the clamp and fit the new battery in reverse order. On Start-Stop models or cars with battery management (BMS), register the new battery with a diagnostic tool so the ECU adjusts charging.
- Four to six years in normal use. Start-Stop batteries (AGM/EFB) tend to last a little less in city driving because of the number of restarts, but they are built for that cycling. If the car sits for weeks or cranks slowly in the cold, have it tested.
