For these petrol engines, we recommend batteries with dimensions of 207x175x190 mm and a capacity exceeding 49 Ah. The weakest of these is the battery Exide Excell EB500 which capacity is 50 Ah and Cold Cranking Amps is 450 A. The most powerful battery is Bosch S5 S50 02 of a capacity 54Ah and Cold Cranking Amps: 530 A. The base hold-down of the above batteries is B13.
Fiat Tipo – petrol engines:
1.0 T3 (74 kW) – with Start-Stop system
1.4 16V (70 kW) – with Start-Stop system
1.4 16V T-Jet (88 kW) – with Start-Stop system
1.4 16V T-Jet LPG (88 kW) – with Start-Stop system
The Fiat Tipo gasoline engines mentioned above are equipped with a Start-Stop system, and in this case, it means there is a need to use batteries produced using EFB technology. Dimensions of matching batteries differ slightly depending on the manufacturer and are 242x175x190 mm or 243x175x190 mm. The parameters of these batteries are at least 60 Ah of a capacity and 560 A CCA (Cold Cranking Amps). All of the above motors have a base hold-down B13.
The Fiat Tipo with a 1.3 Multijet (70 kW) diesel engine should be compatible with batteries of dimensions 207x175x190 mm, with a minimum capacity of 49 Ah. The most basic battery of this set is Exide Excell EB500 of a capacity 50Ah and 450A Cold Cranking Amps, the battery with the biggest capacity is Bosch S5 S50 02 of a capacity 54 Ah, having 530A Cold Cranking Amps. The base hold-down of the above batteries is B13.
The Fiat Tipo with a 1.6 Multijet (88 kW) diesel engine should be compatible with batteries of dimensions 242x175x190 mm, with a minimum capacity of 59 Ah. The most basic battery of this set is Varta Blue Dynamic D24 of a capacity 60Ah and 540A Cold Cranking Amps, the battery with the biggest capacity is Lucas Supreme LS027 of a capacity 65 Ah, having 640A Cold Cranking Amps. All of the above motors have a base hold-down B13.
The diesel engines of the Fiat Tipo listed above have a Start-Stop system, and in this case, this means that we must use batteries produced in EFB technology. Dimensions of matching batteries differ slightly depending on the manufacturer and are 242x175x190 mm or 243x175x190 mm. The parameters of these batteries are at least 60 Ah of a capacity and 560 A CCA (Cold Cranking Amps). All of the above motors have a base hold-down B13.
