How Much Does a Suzuki Battery Cost? (2025)
The price for a new Suzuki battery in 2025 varies widely. This isn't about brand; it's about the technology your specific model requires.
Here is an honest cost breakdown you can expect at our Alberton store. (Prices are estimates and include free fitment and testing).
Category 1: Standard Models (e.g., Swift, old S-Presso)
- Price: R1,450 - R1,600 (with trade-in)
- Battery: Standard "wet" battery (Code 619).
- Why: These cars have a standard electrical system. A high-quality Willard or Exide 619 is the perfect, most cost-effective solution.
Category 2: Start/Stop Models (e.g., new Baleno, Fronx)
- Price: R2,500 - R3,500 (with trade-in)
- Battery: EFB (Enhanced Flooded Battery).
- Why: This is a required, specialized battery built to handle 10x more engine starts. The price reflects this heavy-duty, essential technology.

How fast can Alberton Battery Mart replace my battery?
Most callouts in Alberton, New Redruth, and Meyersdal wrap in 60 minutes. We run Midtronics diagnostics first, then fit your Willard or Exide battery on-site so you avoid towing.
Do you handle Start/Stop and coding?
Yes. We stock AGM/EFB batteries and register them to the vehicle’s BMS before handover, preventing charging faults on BMW, Mercedes, Audi, Ford Ranger, and other Start/Stop platforms.
Can you test my current battery before I buy?
We offer free battery, alternator, and starter testing in-store or as part of the mobile callout. You only pay once we’ve proven the battery is the failure point.
