What is the best battery for a Mazda i-stop?

If your Mazda car uses i-stop technology, you’ll need a stop-start battery. This is because these systems, while more beneficial for the environment and your petrol costs, place much greater demands on the car battery. It needs to be constantly cycling and operating in a partial charge state.

Mazda i-stop is a proprietary technology by Mazda that is generically referred to as idle stop-start (ISS) or simply stop-start. This is a system that switches your car engine off while the car is idle or braked in order to save petrol and energy. The car then automatically restarts when you take your foot off the brake. When replacing a Mazda Stop Start Battery, the battery needs to be registered in the vehicle’s onboard computer. Marshall Batteries uses the best diagnostic tools to ensure your battery, and Mazda is fitted with a new battery, best practice.

Mazda’s i-stop technology is designed to be barely perceptible, so if you aren’t a motorhead, you may not have even known your car does this.

What is the difference between a stop-start battery and a normal battery?

A standard starting battery or a 'normal battery' is designed to release a short burst of energy to start the car and then recharge over the course of a drive. But a stop-start battery is designed to deliver that short burst of starting energy, recharge over short distances, and then do the same again every time you take your foot off the brake.
