Sodium-ion starter batteries for New Zealand distributors
New Zealand’s vehicle parc is largely imported, with many used Japanese vehicles, utes and farm machinery. GreenPower wants to talk with New Zealand importers and wholesalers who can evaluate a sodium-ion starter range.
The New Zealand market
- A high share of used imports means a wide spread of battery sizes and terminal layouts.
- Farming and forestry rely on utes, tractors and trucks that start in cold mornings and work in remote areas.
- Campervans and tourism fleets run seasonal, with long standing periods.
Who we want to work with
- Battery and auto-parts importers
- Rural and farm-supply wholesalers
- Fleet and rental-vehicle operators
- Motorcycle dealers

Why sodium-ion for starting
Hot and cold climates
Built for demanding hot and cold climates: indicative ambient conditions from −40 °C to +40 °C. Cold-start capability down to −40 °C is manufacturer-stated for selected H-series models; actual vehicle fitment and performance must be checked per model.
Abundant raw materials
Sodium is widely available, so a sodium-ion range diversifies your portfolio alongside lead-acid, AGM and EFB. The IEA projects potential lithium and copper supply gaps by 2035 — a projection, not resource depletion. Source: IEA, Global Critical Minerals Outlook 2026
A new category for your channel
Sodium-ion starter batteries are still new in most markets, giving early distributors room to build a position. Pricing is set per inquiry; no fixed global prices apply.
Where we stand in New Zealand
- GreenPower has no office, stock or distributor in New Zealand.
- Dangerous-goods shipping and local requirements are checked before orders.
- Fitment is confirmed per model and vehicle.
The right time to enter sodium-ion is now.
