A note on the Cerato
Typical for 1.6 and 2.0 petrol models. The latest generation can differ, so we confirm by year.
What to know about Kia batteries
Same badge, different battery
Kia renamed several models while changing the car underneath. Optima became K5, and Cerato has given way to K3 and K4. Battery case and terminal layout can differ between those generations, which is why we ask for the year and not only the name.
Carnival doors use the battery
Carnival power sliding doors, the powered tailgate and the cabin fans all run from the 12V battery when the engine is off. Loading children and shopping with the doors cycling and the fan running is a common way to flatten a tired battery.

Kia Cerato battery questions
Which battery does a Kia Cerato take?
The Kia Cerato usually takes a maintenance-free flooded battery, most often 55D23L (60 Ah). This is the fitment most Cerato cars in the Gulf leave the factory with. Engine and model year can change it, so we match it to the label on your current battery before dispatch.
Can you replace a Cerato battery where it is parked?
Yes. We come to homes, offices, basement and mall parking and the roadside across our Dubai coverage. Send the building name, parking level and any security rules so the technician can reach the car.
Does the Cerato need battery registration?
No. The Cerato does not need the new battery registered with a diagnostic tool. Some settings such as the clock or one-touch windows may need resetting, which the technician does before leaving.
How long does a Cerato battery last in the UAE?
About two years is typical here, against three to five in cooler climates. Heat ages the battery whether the car is driven or not, and short trips with the AC on full never quite recharge it. A test before summer shows how much life is left.
Do you carry batteries for the Kia Carnival and Telluride?
Yes. Both take larger batteries than Kia saloons, and the size depends on the year and engine. Tell us the model year when you call and we load the correct one before leaving. Fitting at the car is free with the battery, and the old one is taken for recycling.
