Most common fit — Toyota Aygo X: UK type 027, EFB, 60–65 Ah, 600–680 A (EN), case 242 × 175 × 190 mm. Manual cars have stop/start as standard, so a plain flooded battery is the wrong technology here. Search on Amazon
Fitment varies by engine and build date — the full breakdown and our sourcing notes are below.
Battery Specifications
| Specification | Detail |
|---|---|
| UK battery type | 027 (DIN L2) |
| Technology | EFB — AGM is a valid upgrade. No conventional flooded battery of this size appears on the fitment list. |
| Capacity | 60–65 Ah depending on product |
| Cold cranking amps | 600–680 A (EN) |
| Case dimensions | 242 × 175 × 190 mm |
| Terminal layout | Positive terminal right; B13 hold-down |
| Stop/start | Yes on manual cars — Toyota UK lists engine stop-start as standard with the manual gearbox. It is not listed for the S-CVT automatic. |
| Example parts | Exide EL600 (60 Ah, 640 A, EFB) · Bosch S4 E05 / 0 092 S4E 051 (60 Ah, 640 A, EFB) · Varta Dynamic EFB N60 (60 Ah, 640 A) · Yuasa YBX7027 (65 Ah, 600 A, EFB) · Bosch S5 A05 / 0 092 S5A 050 (60 Ah, 680 A, AGM) |
- Correction. This page previously published type 063, standard flooded, 40 Ah, 340 CCA in a 207 × 175 × 175 case. That was wrong on every field. No 207 × 175 × 175 battery appears anywhere on the Aygo X fitment list, and fitting one would be both the wrong case size and the wrong technology for a stop/start car.
Automatic (S-CVT) cars may differ. Two smaller flooded batteries also appear on the list in a 175 × 175 × 190 case — Yuasa YBX5202 (45 Ah, 440 A) and YBX3202 (42 Ah, 390 A). Those are most likely the non-stop-start automatic build, but the catalogue does not say so, and no UK type code is published for that case. Check what is in the car before ordering.
Confidence in this data: High for the 027 EFB fitment. No data available for a UK type code covering the smaller automatic-car case.
Checked against the TecDoc-derived application data at engine-code level, cross-referenced with Bosch, Varta, Exide and Yuasa product listings. Where the catalogues disagree, or list nothing, this page says so.

Frequently Asked Questions
What battery does a Toyota Aygo X need?
UK type 027, an EFB battery of 60 to 65 Ah and 600 to 680 amps EN, in a 242 x 175 x 190 mm case with the positive terminal on the right. Named examples on the fitment list include Exide EL600, Bosch S4 E05, Varta Dynamic EFB N60 and Yuasa YBX7027.
Does the Aygo X need an EFB or AGM battery?
Yes. Manual Aygo X cars have engine stop-start as standard, and every battery on the fitment list for this car is an EFB or an AGM. A conventional flooded battery is not offered in this size and is not suitable for stop-start duty — it will fail early. AGM is a valid upgrade over EFB; flooded is not a valid downgrade.
Will a 063 battery fit an Aygo X?
No. A 063 is 207 x 175 x 175 mm, which is both shorter and lower than the 242 x 175 x 190 mm case this car takes. It will not sit correctly in the tray or clamp properly, and it is the wrong technology as well. If you have seen 063 quoted for the Aygo X, it is wrong.
How long does an Aygo X battery last?
There is no published figure from Toyota, and we will not invent one. In UK use an EFB battery on a stop-start car typically gives several years of service, shortened by short journeys, long periods parked and heavy accessory loads. Have it tested rather than guessing if starting becomes slow.
Can I change the Aygo X battery myself?
Usually yes, but note that many stop-start cars need the new battery registered to the vehicle so the charging system treats it as new. Check whether yours requires that before you buy, and if it does, factor in a garage visit or a suitable diagnostic tool.

How we check fitment for this guide
We cross-reference fitment figures against manufacturer specifications and OE-supplier catalogue data where available, and matched to the standard codes that actually govern fit — battery type/group sizes, wiper lengths and fitting types, bulb fitment codes, tyre size markings, and oil specifications. We work by make, model, year, engine, and build date, because a single model can take different parts across its life. Where the right part depends on your exact vehicle, we tell you to confirm by registration or VIN. More on our method →
