Bosch has launched a sealed maintenance-free battery to strengthen its product lineup in the increasingly competitive auto-battery market.
The S3 MF is an entirely maintenance-free battery with a labyrinth structure and ventilated cover that is sealed from the factory. The battery therefore requires no topping up over its lifespan of 18-24 months.
"This will make the battery problem-free for customers and increase their convenience," said Yingyuad Whangprayoat, general manager of Robert Bosch Thailand's automotive after-market division.
The S3 MF battery also uses calcium production technology, which ensures precise starting power.
The automative battery aftermarket has heated up this year with manufacturers shifting their focus to the aftermarket as demand from automakers dried up.
Bosch is aiming the S3 MF battery at almost all Japanese passenger and pickup vehicles.
But Mr Yingyuad gave no figure for the targeted market share or total value of the market.
