Sedan
A sedan like the S16 generally takes a mid-size battery. Daily short drives with the air conditioning on are what wear it down, so a test is worthwhile once it is past two years old.

FAQ
Proton S16 battery questions
Short, direct answers. Message us if yours is not here.
Which battery does the Proton S16 take?
It depends on the model year and engine. Send both, ideally with a photo of the current battery label, and we confirm the correct size, terminal layout and technology before bringing it.
Can you replace a Proton S16 battery at my home on Yas Island?
Yes. We fit S16 batteries at accessible homes, apartment parking and hotel or mall car parks on Yas Island. Send your location pin and parking details so we can confirm the visit.
How long does a Proton S16 battery last in Abu Dhabi?
Heat shortens battery life, so batteries here often need replacing sooner than the three to five years typical elsewhere. Short trips and long periods parked shorten it further. A yearly test tells you where yours stands.
What should I tell you before you come to my Proton?
The model, the year and, if you can reach it, a photo of the battery label. It also helps to know where the car is parked on Yas Island and whether it is in a basement. That lets us bring the right battery and tools.
