Where the Exide EB500 fits
The Exide EB500 is a starter battery for cars without Start-Stop: it delivers the current the starter motor needs and then powers lights, control units and audio with the engine off. Its job is to start the engine in the cold with margin to spare and keep the car's electronics powered.
At 50 Ah it covers petrol compacts and small diesels, the best-selling format in Europe. The EB500 belongs to the Exide EXIDE Excell range. More Exide batteries

Frequently asked questions about the Exide EB500
EB500 or EA530: which one suits me?
Compared with the EB500, the Exide EA530 has 3 Ah more and 90 A more cranking power. If your current battery says 540 A or more, choose the EA530; if it says 450 A or less, the EB500 is enough. Both measure 207 × 175 × 190 mm, so they fit the same tray.
Exide EB500 or EB501: what is the difference?
Only the polarity: the EB500 has the positive terminal on the right and the EB501 the positive terminal on the left. Capacity (50 Ah), cranking power and dimensions are identical.
Exide EB500 or EA472: what changes?
Mainly the height: the EB500 is 190 mm tall (L1) and the Exide EA472 175 mm (LB1), with the same length and width.
