## SUBARU Impreza generations

Batteries change from one generation to the next. When two share a year, the body style — or simply the plate — settles it.

## How to know which battery your SUBARU Impreza takes

Easiest of all is the number plate lookup: those few characters tell us the precise variant, the engine and the original battery, so you need not check anything else.

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 Impreza needs

The later Impreza generations run Start-Stop, which puts the battery through hundreds of micro-cycles a day. These cars require EFB (basic Start-Stop) or AGM (Start-Stop with regenerative braking): fitting a conventional battery instead cuts service life to a few months and the ECU may disable the function. Rule of thumb: never downgrade from the technology fitted at the factory.

## Frequently asked questions

### Which battery does a SUBARU Impreza take?
It depends on the generation and engine: there are 4 compatible batteries in total, from 40 to 65 Ah and 330 to 650 A of cold cranking. The best sellers for this model are Car battery Varta C22 12V 52Ah 470A, Car battery Varta A14 12V 40Ah 330A, Start-Stop battery Varta N65 12V 65Ah 650A EFB. With your plate we tell you the exact one in seconds.

### How much does a SUBARU Impreza battery cost?
Between 42.10 € and 110.10 €, VAT included, depending on capacity and technology (lead-acid, EFB). 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 Impreza is?
By the registration year: Impreza Hatchback III (2016-2025); Impreza Saloon V (2016-2025); Impreza Hatchback II (2011-2025); Impreza Saloon IV (2011-2025); Impreza Saloon III (2007-2025); Impreza Hatchback I (2007-2014). 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.

### Can I fit a battery with more amps?
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.

### How long does a SUBARU Impreza battery last?
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.
