For these petrol engines, we recommend batteries with dimensions of 276x175x190 mm or 278x175x190 mm and a capacity exceeding 71 Ah. The weakest of these is the battery Varta Blue Dynamic E11 which capacity is 74 Ah and Cold Cranking Amps is 680 A. The most powerful battery is Lucas Supreme LS096 of a capacity 78Ah and Cold Cranking Amps: 780 A. All of the above motors have a base hold-down B13.
The engines of the Mercedes-Benz C-Class listed above have a Start-Stop system, and in this case, this means that we must use batteries produced in AGM technology. Matching batteries have dimensions 278x175x190 mm. The parameters of these batteries are at least 70 Ah of a capacity and 720 A CCA (Cold Cranking Amps). The base hold-down of the above batteries is B13.
Mercedes-Benz C-Class W204 – petrol engines:
C 250 CGI – with Start-Stop system
C 300 (3.5 l, 185 kW) – with Start-Stop system
C 300 4-matic (3.5 l, 185 kW) – with Start-Stop system
For these engines, no matter if we have a Start-Stop system installed in the car, we should use batteries made in AGM technology. We choose batteries of dimensions: 315x175x190 mm or 317x175x190 mm. The parameters of these batteries are at least 80 Ah of a capacity and 800 A CCA (Cold Cranking Amps). All of the above motors have a base hold-down B13.
For these petrol engines, we recommend batteries with dimensions of 352x175x190 mm or 353x175x190 mm and a capacity exceeding 92 Ah. The weakest of these is the battery Varta Blue Dynamic G3 which capacity is 95 Ah and Cold Cranking Amps is 800 A. The most powerful battery is Exide Premium EA1000 of a capacity 100Ah and Cold Cranking Amps: 900 A. All of the above motors have a base hold-down B13.

It’s important to note that in the Mercedes-Benz W204, apart from the main battery, there is also an auxiliary battery which plays a crucial role in the car’s electrical system, especially in models equipped with the start-stop function. The primary purpose of these batteries is to support the main battery during short-term loads, such as starting the engine or using electrical conveniences when the engine is off. This ensures that the main battery is not overly stressed, leading to a longer lifespan. It’s advisable to regularly check the condition of the auxiliary battery and replace it if necessary to ensure the proper functioning of the car’s systems.
We have insufficient data; we would need the exact engine version and information on whether your car has a Start-Stop system. Most likely, you need a battery sized 278x175x190 mm. If it’s about a car with a start-stop system, then it would additionally be an AGM battery.
