Bosch S4E13 12V 95Ah 850CCA EFB Car Battery (Type 019)

Bosch S4E13 12V 95Ah 850CCA EFB Stop / Start Car Battery – Type 019

The Bosch S4E13 is a powerful 12V 95Ah EFB (Enhanced Flooded Battery) designed for modern vehicles equipped with Stop / Start technology and increased electrical demands. Delivering an impressive 850A Cold Cranking Amps (CCA), the S4E13 provides excellent engine-starting performance together with the improved charge acceptance and cyclic durability required by vehicles that repeatedly stop and restart the engine during everyday driving.

Part of the Bosch S4 EFB range, the S4E13 uses Enhanced Flooded Battery technology to provide greater cycling capability than a conventional flooded starter battery. Its large Type 019 / L5 case size measures 353 × 175 × 190mm, making it particularly suitable for larger cars, SUVs, 4x4s, executive vehicles and light commercial vehicles where a high-capacity EFB battery is specified.

EFB Stop / Start Technology

EFB (Enhanced Flooded Battery) technology is designed for vehicles that place significantly greater cycling demands on their starter battery than a conventional vehicle. In a Stop / Start system, the engine can be switched off when the vehicle is stationary while the battery continues supplying electrical equipment. The battery must then provide sufficient current to restart the engine, potentially many times during a single journey. The Bosch S4E13 is engineered to withstand these repeated starting, partial-discharge and recharge cycles.

Type 019 EFB Fitment

The Bosch S4E13 uses the popular Type 019 / L5 footprint measuring 353 × 175 × 190mm. Conventional flooded, EFB and AGM batteries can all be available in similar Type 019 dimensions, so physical size alone should not be used to determine compatibility. Always match the battery technology specified by the vehicle manufacturer as well as the dimensions, terminal layout, capacity and starting performance.

Important Replacement Information

When replacing a battery in a Stop / Start vehicle, it is important to use the correct battery technology. If the vehicle manufacturer specifies an EFB battery, the replacement should be an equivalent EFB battery or a suitable AGM upgrade where permitted. A conventional flooded starter battery should not be used to replace an EFB battery because it is not designed for the same level of repeated cycling and charge acceptance.

Likewise, if the vehicle was originally equipped with an AGM battery, it should not normally be downgraded to EFB. Some modern vehicles may also require the replacement battery to be registered or coded to the vehicle's Battery Management System (BMS) following installation. Always check the vehicle manufacturer's requirements before fitting.

Why Choose the Bosch S4E13 EFB Car Battery?

The Bosch S4E13 95Ah 850CCA EFB Battery combines substantial battery capacity and powerful cold-cranking performance with the enhanced cycling characteristics required by modern Stop / Start vehicles. Its large Type 019 / L5 format makes it particularly well suited to larger cars, SUVs, 4x4s and other vehicles with significant electrical requirements. For vehicles originally specified with a Type 019 EFB battery, the S4E13 provides a dependable Bosch replacement engineered for the increased demands of modern vehicle electrical and Stop / Start systems.
