The Exide EB712 in practice
Which cars do our customers fit it to?
Mostly to Opel Astra H GTC and Opel Corsa D (2 orders with the vehicle identified). Run it through the plate finder before buying: two versions of the same model can call for different cases.
When not to choose it
Not for Start-Stop or regenerative braking; those need EFB or AGM. Nor if the original had more capacity or cranking: never downwards.

Car battery Exide EB712 Excell 71Ah 670A 12V
The Exide EB712 from the Excell range delivers 71 Ah and 670 A of cold cranking current (EN) at 12 V: the usual specification for passenger cars with conventional starting, without a Start-Stop system. It measures 278 × 175 × 175 mm and the positive terminal on the right, the format sought by anyone replacing a 71 Ah battery in cars.
In short: the Exide EB712 (71 Ah, 670 A, 278 × 175 × 175 mm, positive terminal on the right). It is a conventional battery for cars without Start-Stop: if yours has Start-Stop, it needs an EFB or AGM battery of the same size. Verified equivalent alternatives: Tudor TB712 and Varta E9.
- Original-equipment build quality without the dealership price.
- Direct replacement for the original battery in size and terminals.
- Reliable cold starts, even after weeks without driving.
- Conventional lead-acid: the most proven and economical technology.
What the Exide EB712 is for
The Exide EB712 covers the needs of passenger cars with conventional starting, without a Start-Stop system: reliable starting, stable voltage for the electronics and a service life of several years in daily use. Check that it matches your current battery in size and terminal position. Check that it matches your current battery in dimensions, terminals and hold-down: this reference has a weight of 15.30 kg, 1 terminals and B13 hold-down.
The Exide EB712: Excell range and conventional lead-acid technology
The EB712 is part of the Exide Excell range. Choosing the right reference within the series comes down to capacity, dimensions and terminals: technology and quality are common to the whole family.
The conventional lead-acid battery remains the most widespread technology thanks to its balance of capacity, cranking current and price. Well maintained and kept charged, it offers years of reliable service in vehicles without Start-Stop.
Dimensions, polarity and mounting
The Exide EB712 is made in the 278 × 175 × 175 mm format and weighs 15.30 kg. The positive terminal on the right decides which side the cables end up on: it is the detail that causes most buying mistakes, so check it before ordering. It uses a B13 hold-down and 1 terminals, the system that anchors and connects it in the vehicle. For a direct replacement, the current battery tray must accept these dimensions and the same terminal layout; otherwise adapters will be needed or the hold-down will change.
What Exide does differently
With more than a century of history, Exide Technologies manufactures automotive, marine, motorcycle and industrial batteries in Europe. Its presence as original equipment on assembly lines vouches for the quality of every reference. At baterias.com we work directly with the manufacturer or its official distributor: real stock, brand-new product and official warranty.
Care and maintenance
Avoid leaving lights or accessories on with the engine off: most batteries fail not through defects but through repeated deep discharges. On batteries with filler caps, check the electrolyte level and top up only with distilled water.
Warranty and coverage
The Exide EB712 comes with the manufacturer's official warranty against manufacturing defects; the exact period is stated in the brand's conditions. If it fails through a defect within the period, we replace it free of charge.
Delivery times and returns
Order before 6:00 pm with stock available and it leaves today: mainland Spain and Portugal receive it in 24-48 working hours, the islands and the rest of the EU in 3 to 5 days. You have 14 days to return it if it has not been installed, with free collection on the mainland, and shipment tracking by email.

Frequently asked questions
How do I fit the EB712 model in my car?
With a 10 mm spanner, swapping in the Exide EB712 takes 15 to 30 minutes on most cars; if the battery sits in the boot or under a seat, allow up to twice as long. With the engine stopped and the key removed, always start with the negative (−) terminal, then the positive (+). Free the clamp, swap the battery without turning it round (this one has positive on the right) so the polarity stays the same, and reconnect in reverse: positive (+) first, negative (−) last. Before you start, check the car handbook: the manufacturer's procedure always comes first. Our full step-by-step guide is on the blog.
How long does the Exide EB712 battery last?
Estimated lifespan of the Exide EB712: 4 to 6 years in regular car use without Start-Stop. Treat it as an approximate guide, as every case is different. Actual lifespan varies with climate (cold starts, heat evaporating the electrolyte), with usage and short journeys, with the condition of the alternator and charging system, with power draw while parked and with maintenance; the type of car and Start-Stop also count.
What size is this battery?
It measures 278×175×175 mm in length × width × height, with the terminals included in the height; that is the European LB3 case size. Measure the battery tray before ordering: a one-millimetre difference is enough for the hold-down clamp not to close.
Which side is the positive terminal on this battery?
The EB712 has the positive on the right in a LB3 case: that is its polarity. Face the battery with its terminals nearest you and see which side the positive post (+, red ring) is on. Compare it with the battery you are replacing: if it does not match, cables must be lengthened or the system reconfigured, with a risk of short circuit.
Is the EB712 valid for my vehicle?
The quickest way is to enter your number plate in the finder: DGT/DVLA/KBA detect model and engine. You can also look at the "Compatible vehicles" tab, verified by our technical team, or send us make, model, engine and year on WhatsApp; we answer during business hours (Mon–Fri 10:00–13:30 and 16:30–18:00 (Spanish time, CET)). According to our data, 116 verified vehicle versions are compatible with the EB712. In every case, the car manufacturer's specifications (owner's handbook) take precedence.
What are the equivalents of the EB712 model?
The "Equivalents" section of this page gathers the recommended options with equivalent performance; remember that in Start-Stop cars an EFB should not be replaced with a conventional battery. To replace the Exide EB712 without modifications, the other battery must be identical in size (LB3 case), polarity, Ah and CCA.
Exide EB712 or Exide EA722: which one to choose?
Same family as the EB712, one step up in performance. Compared with the EB712 it has 1 Ah more and 50 A of cold cranking more. It costs the same. Worth it if your car originally had more capacity, is a diesel or cranks lazily in winter; otherwise the EB712 does the job.
Exide EB712 or Varta E38: which one to choose?
Same case and same fitting as the EB712, from Varta. Compared with the EB712 it has 3 Ah more and 80 A of cold cranking more. It costs 30,70 € more. If you want to save or the EB712 is out of stock, it is the safe alternative: same dimensions, same polarity and official warranty.
