What is the difference between a truck AGM and an EFB?

An AGM holds the electrolyte in a glass-fibre mat: it is sealed, spill-proof and withstands deeper discharges and far more cycles than an EFB. It is the choice for advanced Start-Stop and heavy engine-off loads.

What is Live-Load consumption on a truck?

It is the electrical load that stays active with the engine off: tachograph, GPS, telematics or refrigeration. The ProMotive AGM is sized to feed it through rest breaks and still crank the engine without trouble.

Does a truck AGM battery need maintenance?

No. Being sealed with absorbed electrolyte it needs no topping up or special venting, and can be mounted tilted without acid leaks. Just recharge it with an AGM-compatible charger.

VARTA ProMotive AGM: the truck battery for Start-Stop and Live-Load

The ProMotive AGM series is VARTA's premium commercial-vehicle range: the glass-fibre mat absorbs the electrolyte (Absorbent Glass Mat), making it spill-proof and multiplying cycle resistance. It is built for trucks with Start-Stop, long hibernation and Live-Load engine-off consumption: tachograph, GPS, telematics and refrigeration stay powered through rest breaks without leaving you unable to start.
