Metropolitan Battery FAQs

Most original Metropolitans used a 6V Group 1 battery. If your vehicle has been upgraded to a 12V system, a Group 26 or Group 51 battery may be more appropriate. Use our Battery Fitment Finder for the best match.

Yes. AGM batteries like X2Power are great for vintage vehicles. They’re spill-proof, require no maintenance, and hold a charge longer - perfect for collector cars that aren’t driven every day.
