AGM, EFB, or Calcium? Find the Right Battery for Your Car

Choosing the correct battery technology is key to your vehicle's performance and your wallet. Using the wrong type can lead to a short lifespan and poor starting power. Our NZ-based experts have created this simple guide to help you understand the difference between AGM, EFB, and Calcium car batteries.

AGM (Absorbent Glass Mat) Batteries

Premium
Best For: Modern cars with Start-Stop technology, luxury vehicles, high electrical loads
Technology: Advanced. Glass mat absorbs acid, making it spill-proof and vibration-resistant
Performance: Excellent. Handles deep cycling from start-stop systems effortlessly
Lifespan: Longest (Typically 4-7 years)
NZ Recommendation: Essential for most modern European & Japanese imports on NZ roads

EFB (Enhanced Flooded Battery) Batteries

Mid-Range
Best For: Vehicles with basic Start-Stop, older models needing a reliable upgrade
Technology: Intermediate. A more robust version of the traditional flooded battery
Performance: Good. Better cycle life and durability than Calcium batteries
Lifespan: Medium (Typically 3-5 years)
NZ Recommendation: A smart choice for many common late-model cars in NZ

Calcium Batteries

Economy
Best For: Older model vehicles without start-stop, classic cars, basic systems
Technology: Standard. Traditional lead-acid technology with calcium added to reduce water loss
Performance: Adequate. Reliable for standard engines with basic electrical demands
Lifespan: Shortest (Typically 3-4 years)
NZ Recommendation: A cost-effective and reliable solution for pre-2010 vehicles

Quick Guide: Which Battery Is Right For You?

  • Modern car with start-stop? → Choose AGM
  • Basic start-stop or older European car? → Choose EFB
  • Pre-2010 vehicle without advanced features? → Choose Calcium
