What is the battery model for the Chang'an Suzuki Swift?
2 Answers
The original battery model for the Swift is the Yuasa Battery 12V45A (Ampere-hour), and the Swift supports a maximum battery capacity of 55A. Below is some relevant information about the Swift: 1. The M15A engine equipped in the Swift is one of China's top ten fuel-efficient all-aluminum engines. It features a 16-valve double overhead camshaft (DOHC) and WVT continuous variable valve timing technology, delivering a maximum power of 76 kW, a maximum torque of 138 N·m, and a maximum torque speed of 4000 rpm. While providing efficient power, the M15A engine also ensures higher gasoline combustion efficiency, achieving excellent fuel economy with a constant-speed fuel consumption of just 5.6L per 100 km, accurately reflecting the Swift's fuel-saving performance. 2. The Swift is a new car brand launched by Chang'an Suzuki in 2005, marketed as an 'absolutely differentiated new product.' True to its name, the Swift is compact and agile, often referred to as a 'mini MINI-COOPER.' The domestic Swift boasts a stylish and attractive design, complete configurations, and is both economical and fuel-efficient, making it popular among young people, especially female drivers.
I've been driving a Changan Suzuki Swift for five years, and changing the battery is a common occurrence. Typically, I use the 55B24L model, with a capacity of around 45 ampere-hours, suitable for Swift models with 1.3L or 1.5L engines. The 2006 Swift might come with this battery, but there could be differences depending on the year, such as manual and automatic transmissions having similar battery requirements, but it's important to pay attention to cold cranking performance in winter. If the battery is dead, the car won't start, but the dashboard lights will still be on. Checking it yourself is simple: just look under the hood or check the label on the old battery for the model number. When choosing a new battery, I recommend brands like Varta or GS, as they tend to be more durable. Remember not to use the wrong model, as it can affect the battery's lifespan or even damage the electrical circuits. It's a good habit to check the voltage during annual maintenance, as it can save you both hassle and money.
