Hi all,
I am looking to purchase a Genuine Mercedes Benz battery for my 1990 300E.
I did a search and there were 2 batteries listed one was 74 AMPS and one was
100 AMPS. I curretly have the smaller one but wanted to find out what is the
difference. Also I would consider other batteries
The higher amp battery is probably for those who live in cold climates.
I have noticed that living in the south the batteries of the same
physical size have lower CCA ratings than the ones sold in the north lands.

Yes.
CCA is measured at 0°F
CA is measured at 0°C (cranking amps)
A 1000 CA battery is probably around 750-850 CCA.

What does CCA mean?
Cold Cranking Amps is a rating used in the battery industry to define a
battery's ability to start an engine in cold temperatures. The rating is

I believe that the smaller battery is fine for a gasoline car, and the
larger one is better suited for a Diesel car.

The 880 CCA group 49 that #1 boy needed for the w140 was coming in around $130.
He lacked the funds, so I pulled an old group 49 off the garage shelf. With

months.
