Ford Ka battery size (UK)

It depends on the engine and on whether the car has stop-start. For the Ka Mk2 (Nov 2008 to Apr 2017), the standard battery is most often a 202 (012/079 or 063 on some engines); cars with stop-start need an EFB or AGM battery, most often a 027 EFB (027 AGM on some engines). Every engine is in the tables below.

Key takeaways

  • Ka Mk2: standard 202; with stop-start 027 EFB.
  • UK size codes (063, 096, 027...) are printed on the battery label - match yours, including AGM or EFB.
  • A car with stop-start needs an EFB or AGM battery; a car without it can take either type.

Brand in brackets = which battery maker lists that size for that engine. "EFB / AGM" covers the batteries a stop-start car needs; for cars without stop-start the makers list them as an upgrade.
