KOBA’s automotive range includes high performance Absorbent Glass Mat (AGM) batteries suited for modern vehicles with Idle Stop Start (ISS) and regenerative braking systems. Vehicles equipped with ISS systems can automatically shut down and restart the internal combustion engine. This reduces the amount of time the engine spends idling which reduces fuel consumption and greenhouse gas emissions. KOBA AGM batteries are designed to for high charge acceptance and cycle life, and deliver excellent starting power. These batteries are also resistant to vibration due to their compressed internal construction.
The KOBA battery range also caters to vehicles requiring an Enhanced Flooded Battery (EFB) or calcium battery. EFB batteries strike a balance between performance and value, making them suitable for many vehicles with ISS technology. They are the next step up to the already reliable KOBA calcium range as they offer even better charge acceptance and up to twice the service life under standard vehicle conditions.

KOBA offers the Deep Cycle HD Plus range for RVs, 4WDs, and marine applications operating in rugged environments. These batteries excel in endurance and vibration resistance. Their low self-discharge rate makes them especially well-suited for seasonally used boats, campers, and caravans.
For those in search of an all-rounder battery, KOBA’s Dual Purpose Deep Cycle batteries deliver the best of both worlds – strong starting capabilities and robust cycling performance. These batteries are ideal for recreational and marine enthusiasts who need one battery to do it all.
