What the Jaguar XJ220 takes
As a coupe, the XJ220 often has a tightly packed engine bay or a battery in the boot, and many are weekend cars that sit parked for long stretches.
Older versions of the XJ220 generally use a standard maintenance-free battery with no registration step, so the swap is quick.
The main battery on XE, XF, F-Pace and XJ is an AGM in the L4 or L5 case, which means 80 to 95 Ah. E-Pace generally takes the L4 at around 80 Ah. The F-Type also uses a large AGM despite being a two-seater, because of its electrical load. Auxiliary batteries, where fitted, are much smaller units and differ by model and year. Since Jaguar changed arrangements several times, the exact sizes are confirmed from the chassis number when you call, and checked again against the batteries in the car.

Jaguar fitting notes that apply to the XJ220
- The battery monitoring system is reset with a scan tool after fitting. Without it, charging stays wrong and start-stop may never return.
- A flat Jaguar can lock you out of the boot where the battery is. Power is fed to the under-bonnet posts first to release it.
- The boot-mounted battery has a vent tube that must be reconnected, so any gas goes outside the car and not into the luggage area.
- The electronic parking brake and, on models that have one, the rising gear selector need full voltage. The car is kept on support power during the swap.
Signs a Jaguar XJ220 battery is on its way out
- 'Low battery, please start engine' appears on the screen after a few minutes with the radio on and the engine off.
- The start-stop symbol stays crossed out for weeks.
- The car unlocks slowly, the mirrors unfold late, or the boot release only works on the second press.
Jaguar XJ220 battery: FAQs
What battery does a Jaguar XJ220 take?
It depends on the model year and engine. The technician confirms the exact size and technology from the battery already fitted or from the chassis number, then fits the same specification. For the XJ220 we most often fit Varta, Bosch, Exide.
How long does it take to replace a Jaguar XJ220 battery?
Fitting usually takes 15 to 30 minutes once the technician is at the car. Typical arrival in Al Taawun is 20 to 35 minutes, so most XJ220 owners are driving again within an hour of calling.
Can you replace a Jaguar XJ220 battery in a basement car park?
Yes. Send the tower name, level and bay number. If the van cannot enter, the technician carries the battery and tools to the car.
How do you open the boot of a Jaguar with a dead battery?
The technician connects a power pack to the jump posts under the bonnet, which wakes the car enough for the boot release to work. If the cabin is locked, the key blade hidden in the fob opens the driver's door so the bonnet can be released. Once the boot is open the battery is changed as normal.
Does my Jaguar have two batteries?
Many start-stop Jaguars do: a large main battery that starts the engine and a small auxiliary one that holds up the electronics during restarts. They age at different rates. We test both and tell you which one has failed before anything is replaced.
