Can I install a higher capacity battery in my Nissan Cube 1.5 DCI?

Yes, you can install a higher capacity (Ah) battery as long as the physical dimensions fit your Nissan Cube 1.5 DCI battery compartment and the positive terminal position matches.

What battery fits the Nissan Cube 1.5 DCI?

The Nissan Cube 1.5 DCI requires a battery with the correct capacity (Ah) and Cold Cranking Amps (CCA) for this engine. Compatible batteries offer 45-60 Ah, 300-540 A (CCA), 12 V, case E2, conventional flooded technology. Browse the compatible battery list below.

How many Ah does the Nissan Cube 1.5 DCI battery need?

The exact Ah rating for the Nissan Cube 1.5 DCI depends on the vehicle's original electrical consumers. Compatible batteries offer 45-60 Ah, 300-540 A (CCA), 12 V, case E2, conventional flooded technology. Use our finder for a precise recommendation.

What type of battery does my car need?

You need the make, model and engine. If your car has Start-Stop (the engine switches off at traffic lights), it needs an EFB or an AGM battery, depending on what it came with: if it has an AGM, fit another AGM; if it has an EFB, another EFB or an AGM. On cars with battery management (BMW, Mercedes, VAG group…), moving from EFB to AGM requires coding the new battery. Without Start-Stop, a conventional battery is fine, or an EFB or AGM if you want a longer life.

What is the difference between AGM, EFB and standard batteries?

A conventional (lead-acid) battery is for cars without Start-Stop. An EFB is a reinforced conventional battery for basic Start-Stop. An AGM offers the highest performance and is fitted as standard on cars with advanced Start-Stop, regenerative braking or high electrical demand. Replacement rule: an AGM only with another AGM; an EFB with another EFB or an AGM; a conventional battery with any of the three. Never move down in technology.

How do I find the right battery for my vehicle?

Use the search tool by selecting your vehicle's make and model. Our system automatically filters compatible part numbers verified by our technicians. If you have any questions, contact us via WhatsApp.

What warranty do the batteries have?

How long does it take for the battery to arrive?

Under normal circumstances, batteries usually arrive within 1 to 2 days of ordering. However, there are some cases where delivery may take a little longer: peak seasons (Black Friday, Christmas, etc.), palletized shipments, occasional stock shortages, etc.

Data: vehicle specifications and the battery manufacturer's application catalogue.

EFB, AGM or conventional for this engine?

The Nissan Cube 1.5 DCI has no Start-Stop: a conventional lead-acid battery of around 45 Ah is enough and the cheapest option. An EFB or AGM also works (it lasts longer and copes better with short trips), but it is not essential.

🔧 Battery Expert Advisor

Battery analysis for your Nissan Cube 1.5 DCI

Quick answer Depending on the equipment, your car uses one of these two main batteries. The most common option is ordinary lead-acid 45 Ah (220×135×225 mm): we recommend VARTA B23. Other units use ordinary lead-acid 60 Ah (232×173×225 mm): VARTA D47. Before buying, check the Ah on your current battery's label or measure its length.

Based on the batteries we found for your vehicle, our experts help you pick the right one.

📋 What we found

For your Nissan Cube 1.5 DCI we found 9 compatible batteries. This list includes 3 Start-Stop batteries and 6 conventional batteries (non Start-Stop).

📏 Battery size

The list contains batteries in different sizes or capacities (Ah). In many cases both variants fit, but it's worth checking your compartment dimensions and the Ah of your original battery before buying. Choose the one with the same dimensions as your current battery: a bigger one may not fit the compartment or the hold-down. If several match your size, the higher capacity gives more headroom for cold starts.

⚡ Battery type for your vehicle

✓ Your Nissan Cube 1.5 DCI does not need a Start-Stop battery. The conventional ones shown fit your vehicle and are the most affordable option. If you want a higher-quality, longer-lasting battery, you can also fit an EFB or AGM as an upgrade — they are fully compatible and last more years.

🔋 Technology (AGM / EFB)

✓ All Start-Stop batteries in the list are EFB. They fit your car if the factory battery was EFB. If your current battery was AGM, check with us before buying: EFB cannot replace AGM.

Before you buy: check 3 key points

Although the batteries shown are sourced from information provided by manufacturers, we recommend checking on your current battery:

Dimensions (length × width × height, including terminals and protrusions)
The dimensions shown are the maximum of the battery and include the height of the terminals, small ridges at the base and any lateral protrusions. Measure your current battery completely, from edge to edge. The new one must be the same size or slightly smaller — never larger, it would not fit in the housing.
Positive terminal (left or right viewed from the front — check the battery photo carefully)
Stand facing the battery, with the manufacturer's label facing you and the terminals on top. Locate the terminal marked with +: if it is on your right, it is "positive right"; if it is on your left, it is "positive left". Do not rely on how the battery is mounted in the car — the position is always measured looking only at the battery itself.
Technology (AGM, EFB or conventional — the same as your current battery or higher)
Depending on the manufacturer, the same technology may be labelled differently: AGM may also appear as VRLA, AGM Start-Stop or AGM Deep Cycle. EFB may appear as EF, EFB+ or Enhanced Flooded Battery. Conventional may appear as SLI, Lead-Acid, Wet or Standard. If your vehicle has Start-Stop, the battery must be AGM or EFB — never conventional.

If you have any questions, just ask us and we'll be glad to advise you with no obligation.
