The automotive industry is witnessing a significant shift towards advanced battery technologies. According to Grand View Research, the Automotive Lead-Acid Battery market in South Africa generated an impressive revenue of ZAR 2.76 billion (USD 149.1 million) in 2024 alone. Within this market, Absorbent Glass Mat (AGM) batteries stand out as a superior choice for various applications, particularly in South Africa’s hot and demanding climate.
Why AGM Batteries?
AGM batteries are designed to offer numerous advantages over traditional flooded lead-acid batteries. As highlighted by Battery University, these batteries can charge up to five times faster and support a deeper depth-of-discharge—up to 80% compared to the 50% of flooded batteries. This makes them a versatile and efficient power source for various applications.
During South Africa’s warm summer months, AGM batteries deliver exceptional performance. Their sealed design ensures water retention and prevents leakage, even in extreme temperatures.
Performance in Modern Vehicles
Modern vehicles equipped with start-stop technology demand robust and reliable batteries. AGM batteries excel in this regard, offering high bursts of current for starting applications while withstanding frequent starts and stops without significant wear. Battery Stuff emphasises their durability and efficiency in supporting these advanced systems.
