Where the Kronobat SD-45.0 fits
The Kronobat SD-45.0 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. If your car has no Start-Stop and had a 45 Ah battery, the SD-45.0 is a direct replacement.
At 45 Ah it is a small size: the usual choice for petrol superminis and city cars with little equipment. The SD-45.0 belongs to the Kronobat STANDARD range. See all Kronobat batteries
