Before ordering the MS-54.0, check this

  • Length, width and height of the MS-54.0: 207 × 175 × 190 mm (European case size L1).
  • Polarity of the MS-54.0: positive terminal on the right (if yours has it on the other side, the cables will not reach).
  • Capacity of the MS-54.0: 54 Ah; the same as your current battery or slightly more is fine.
  • Cold cranking: 530 A (EN), equal to or higher than the original.
  • If your car has Start-Stop, the MS-54.0 is not the right one: it needs an EFB or an AGM.

Inside the MS-54.0: lead-acid technology

Inside, the MS-54.0 is classic lead-acid: liquid electrolyte and lead plates. If the MS-54.0 is left discharged for weeks it sulphates: a maintenance charger prevents this.
