Honda Jazz II (2002-2008) – batteries


For the Honda Jazz II model (2002-2008) without the Start-Stop system, lead-acid batteries are recommended, as they provide adequate performance and durability for everyday use of this car. For versions with gasoline engines, batteries with a capacity of 35 Ah to 45 Ah are advised.

In the case of the Honda Jazz II, it’s important to pay attention to the type of battery terminals, as thinner terminals of type 3 are required. Additionally, instead of the standard B13 mounting used in many other car models, batteries with a B0 mounting type are best suited for this Honda model. This is an essential element to consider when choosing a battery to avoid installation issues.

Examples of compatible battery models include Bosch S40 18 and Exide EB356 for smaller engines (1.2 and 1.4 liters), which offer stable parameters and good protection against discharge. For 1.3 and 1.5 engines, models like Bosch S40 20 or Exide EB456, which feature a higher starting current beneficial for more powerful engines, are worth considering. Additional alternatives include Lucas LP054 and Varta A14 for smaller engines, and Halfords HCB 053 and Varta B31 for larger capacities.

It is also worth remembering that choosing the right battery affects not only engine performance but also battery longevity and the overall comfort of vehicle use. Lead-acid batteries, used in the Honda Jazz II model, offer a good price-to-quality ratio, and properly matching them helps minimize the risk of electrical issues in the vehicle.
