Source: published VARTA battery-finder fitment data (varta-automotive.com) for the Vauxhall Mokka (2021 onwards), consulted August 2026. Where more than one battery is listed, the manufacturer fits different sizes across builds — measure the battery you remove, or confirm by registration, before ordering.

EFB is the recommended fitment across the range. Match the technology of the battery you remove.

Confirm this by registration before you buy. The type number here indicates case size, terminal layout and polarity — it does not fix capacity or CCA, and manufacturers often specify more than one battery across a model’s build years and engines. Measure the battery you remove, or check by registration or VIN, and match the technology (flooded, EFB or AGM) exactly.
Start-stop warning: Never fit a standard lead-acid battery to a start-stop vehicle. The Vauxhall Mokka requires a EFB battery minimum. Fitting the wrong type will cause premature failure and may trigger warning lights.

Frequently Asked Questions

What battery does a Vauxhall Mokka need?

A type 027 EFB, 60 Ah and 640 A, measuring 242 x 175 x 190 mm. VARTA fitment data for the current Mokka lists that battery as the recommendation for the 1.2 Turbo in 101, 131 and 136 PS forms and for the Mokka-e, where it is the 12 V system battery rather than the traction pack. A larger type 096 of 70 Ah and 760 A appears as an alternative on some builds. Confirm by registration before ordering.

Does the Vauxhall Mokka need an AGM or EFB battery?

EFB, with AGM listed as an upgrade. Every Mokka engine returned by VARTA shows an EFB as the recommended fitment and an AGM alternative in the same case size. Match the technology printed on the battery you take out, and never downgrade a stop-start car to a plain flooded battery.

How long does a Vauxhall Mokka battery last?

Typically 4–6 years depending on driving patterns. Short urban journeys and cold winters reduce battery life. Start-stop systems are harder on batteries, so quality EFB batteries are essential.

Can I replace the Vauxhall Mokka battery myself?

Yes for most models — it’s usually located in the engine bay. However, start-stop vehicles may need the battery management system reset with a diagnostic tool after fitting.

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 →
