Bullseye! Banner now OE

An AGM battery from Banner Battery’s line-up is now OE on the new BMW 1-series.

The AGM range, known as ‘Running Bull’ batteries offer better cold-starting characteristics, massively increased vibration resistance and an operating life said to be three times longer than a standard lead-acid battery. ‘Running Bull’ also incorporates a closed system which ensures zero maintenance and maximum protection against leakage.

The firm says that the new batteries will be used mainly in vehicles with high energy requirements. In this area, the modern battery range is designed to provide ‘flexible power’ to vehicles with start/stop systems or extra equipment.
