    «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 generation and engine: there are 4 compatible batteries in total, from 56 to 63 Ah and 480 to 610 A of cold cranking. The best sellers for this model are Car battery Varta D24 12V 60Ah 540A, Car battery Varta D15 12V 63Ah 610A, Car battery Varta D43 12V 60Ah 540A. With your plate we tell you the exact one in seconds.
Between 63.80 € and 83.60 €, 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.
By the registration year: Shuma II (2001-2007); Shuma II Saloon (2001-2004); Shuma I (1996-2001); Shuma Saloon (1996-2001). 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.
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.
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.

How to know which battery your KIA Shuma 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.

Another route is the vehicle paperwork: the registration date places you in one of the generations listed. In the overlap years, body style is the detail that separates them.

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.
