Kia Sportage battery size (UK)
It depends on the engine and on whether the car has stop-start. For the Sportage 2016-2022 model (Jan 2016 to Sep 2022), the standard battery is most often a 335 (096 or 249/335 on some engines); cars with stop-start need an EFB or AGM battery, most often a 115 AGM (096 AGM or 027 AGM on some engines). Every engine is in the tables below.
Key takeaways
- Sportage 2016-2022 model: standard 335; with stop-start 115 AGM.
- 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.
