Suzuki Samurai was produced in the years 1998 – 2004. Below we present the specifications of batteries suitable for specific engines.

Basic parameters of batteries suitable for Suzuki Samurai (1998-2004):

Layout	Terminal types	Base hold-down
1 – positive on the left side	3	B0
0 – positive on the right side	1	B13
0 – positive on the right side	1	B9
0 – positive on the right side	1	B01

As you can see, in case of Suzuki Samurai, even the basic parameters of the batteries (battery layout, terminal types and base hold-down) are not identical for all engine versions. For this reason, care must be taken to match the battery to a specific engine.
