My soon-to-be-traded-in Kia Cee'd has a start stop system that receives poor comments on the Cee'd forums. It works rarely or does not charge the battery. On the diesel I have it requires a gel battery and corresponding external charger for gel batteries.
It works for me except that the battery is only charged by the car on the overrun. Since we do a lot of short journeys that means, in winter especially, the car gets put on the charger every week or so, otherwise the battery runs down.
So, how do people find the equivalent Arona Stop Start system?
Is it a gel battery allowing me to use my gel battery charger?
Cheers.
