The original battery model of the Dongfeng Peugeot 408 is L2400. Taking the 2020 Dongfeng Peugeot 408 as an example, it is a compact car with body dimensions of 4750mm in length, 1820mm in width, and 1488mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2730mm and a curb weight of 1325kg. The 2020 Dongfeng Peugeot 408 features a MacPherson strut front suspension and a torsion beam rear suspension. It is equipped with a 1.2T turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 136PS, a maximum torque of 230Nm, and a maximum power of 100kW, paired with a 6-speed dual-clutch transmission.
As a Peugeot 408 owner with years of driving experience, I clearly remember the original battery was model L3-800, with a capacity of 60 ampere-hours and voltage of 12 volts. This size matches the vehicle's electrical circuit design perfectly - using other models may cause starting difficulties or electronic device malfunctions. Car batteries tend to age over time, typically requiring replacement every 2-3 years; otherwise, cold starts in winter often result in breakdowns. I recommend owners regularly check voltage with a multimeter and keep terminals clean to prevent rust. Proper battery maintenance avoids towing troubles and ensures safer driving. While battery technology has advanced nowadays, choosing original factory specifications remains the most worry-free option.
