Bosch Relaunches Passenger Vehicle Battery Program

Robert Bosch has relaunched its passenger vehicle battery program with a new look and four new lines.

The Bosch S3, S4 and S5 batteries are 100% maintenance-free, flooded lead acid batteries, the company said. The S5 is designed for high-end, late-model domestic and import vehicles with higher electrical demand, while the S4 can be used for all types of vehicle. The S3 is designed for older vehicles with fewer electrical demands, Bosch said.

Designed for power-hungry late-model vehicles, the premium grade Bosch S6 High-Performance Absorbent Glass Mat (AGM) battery is ideal for vehicles that feature start/stop systems and regenerative braking, the company adds.

All of the new batteries come with a replacement warranty based on the battery type.

The Bosch Battery program has also been upgraded to include:
•    Easy-to-read labels that align with the Bosch global packaging design
•    Handles for better grip and easy installation
•    Most new units feature a flushed and sealed battery cover on to minimize the risk of acid spill and to help prevent terminal post corrosion
•    Full-frame technology on the lead grids with a flow-optimized grid design for high starting power and a long service life
•    A special alloy for high corrosion resistance and significantly lower self-discharge
