## SsangYong Rodius generations

Not every generation uses the same battery. If your year fits more than one, tell them apart by body style or let the plate resolve it.

## How to know which battery your SsangYong Rodius takes

The quickest and safest route is to enter your number plate: we identify the exact version, its engine and the battery fitted at the factory, with no room for error.

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.

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 Rodius needs

Start-Stop on the modern Rodius 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 SsangYong Rodius take?
It depends on the engine. SsangYong Rodius owners mostly buy Varta G8 Dynamic SLI 95Ah (100.90 €) 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 SsangYong Rodius battery cost?
Between 100.90 € and 100.90 €, 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 Rodius is?
By the registration year: Rodius II (2013-2025); Rodius I (2005-2025). 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.

### How long does a SsangYong Rodius battery last?
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.

### How do I know the battery in my SsangYong Rodius 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.
