Car battery Exide EB741 Excell 74Ah 680A 12V
With 74 Ah at 12 V and 680 A of cold cranking current (EN), the Exide EB741 from the Excell range is a starter battery built for passenger cars with conventional starting, without a Start-Stop system. It replaces the original battery without adaptation in cars with a 278 × 175 × 190 mm format: same 74 Ah capacity and the positive terminal on the left.
In short: the Exide EB741 (74 Ah, 680 A, 278 × 175 × 190 mm, positive terminal on the left). 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 TB741 and Varta E12.
- Direct replacement for the original battery in size and terminals.
- Original-equipment build quality without the dealership price.
- Conventional lead-acid: the most proven and economical technology.
- Reliable cold starts, even after weeks without driving.
Vehicles compatible with the Exide EB741
According to our database, the Exide EB741 equips more than 331 vehicles from brands such as Massey Ferguson, Carraro, Goldoni, Goldini, Fiat and Kubota, among others. It is a go-to option when you need a battery for a Massey Ferguson, Carraro or other models that use this same format. The compatibility list also includes models from Komatsu, Foredil, R.a.lister, Valpadana, Caterpillar, Busatto, Case Ih and Aebi. In our database it is cross-referenced against 42 original-equipment part numbers, which gives an idea of its real coverage.
Size, terminals and hold-down of the Exide EB741
In terms of format, the Exide EB741 measures 278 × 175 × 190 mm (length × width × height) and weighs 16.60 kg. The positive terminal on the left 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. Checking the three dimensions and the terminal position before buying avoids the most common mistake when replacing a battery.
The Exide EB741: Excell range and conventional lead-acid technology
Within the Exide catalogue, the Excell series groups the references designed for this use. The EB741 is the 74 Ah model of that family, with the same performance as its siblings in other sizes.
In a conventional battery the electrolyte is liquid and the lead plates are immersed in it. It is a mature, economical and easily recycled technology, ideal for starting vehicles in normal use.
Exide: the maker behind the EB741
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. We guarantee that every Exide arrives new, charged and with the manufacturer's full warranty.
Warranty and coverage
The Exide EB741 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.
Usage and maintenance tips
In normal daily use the alternator keeps the battery charged; if the car stands for weeks, a maintenance charge once a month prevents deep discharge. On batteries with filler caps, check the electrolyte level and top up only with distilled water.
When you get it and how to return it
Same-day dispatch from our warehouse for in-stock orders placed before 6:00 pm: 24-48 working hours in mainland Spain and Portugal, 3 to 5 days in the islands and the rest of Europe. Returns are accepted for 14 days if the battery has not been used (free collection on the Iberian mainland). You will receive tracking by email.

Frequently asked questions
How is the Exide EB741 battery installed in the vehicle?
In most cars it fits in 15-30 minutes with a 10 mm wrench; if the battery is under the seat or in the boot the time can double. See the step-by-step guide on our blog. Quick summary: 1) switch off the engine and remove the key; 2) locate the original battery (engine bay, boot or under seat); 3) disconnect the negative (−) terminal first, then the positive (+); 4) loosen the hold-down clamp and remove the old battery; 5) fit the new one in the same orientation — with positive on the left match the polarity shown on the product sheet; 6) connect the positive (+) first, then the negative (−). On cars with Start-Stop or BMS, register the battery via OBD so the alternator applies the correct charging profile.
How many years does this battery last?
Expected lifespan of the Exide EB741 is 4 to 6 years in regular car use without Start-Stop. In cold regions it drops slightly due to cold-start stress; in very hot regions it also drops because of electrolyte evaporation. To extend its life: avoid deep discharges (headlights on with engine off), have the alternator checked yearly, and keep the battery clean and properly secured.
What size is this battery?
Dimensions (length × width × height) are 278×175×190 mm — also written as 278x175x190 mm and correspond to the European L3 case size — following the European DIN standard. Always measure the space in your car before buying: even one extra millimetre can prevent the hold-down clamp from closing. The height shown includes the terminals.
Which side is the positive terminal on this battery?
Polarity: positive on the left. To identify it, place the battery in front of you with the terminals facing you and check which side the positive (+, marked with a red ring) is on. Before buying, verify the polarity matches your current battery: switching polarity forces longer cables or system reconfiguration, with short-circuit risk.
Will the Exide EB741 battery fit my car?
Three options to confirm: 1) enter your number plate in the finder (DGT/DVLA/KBA auto-detect your model and engine); 2) check the "Compatible vehicles" tab on this page, where we list every vehicle verified by our technical team; 3) if you cannot find your model, message us on WhatsApp with brand, model, engine and year — we reply during business hours (Mon–Fri 10:00–13:30 and 16:40–18:00 (Spanish time, CET)). The EB741 fits 223 verified vehicle versions in our database.
Which batteries are equivalent to the Exide EB741?
Directly interchangeable batteries (same dimensions, same polarity, same Ah and CCA) are the OEM equivalents from leading brands: Bosch, Tudor, Exide and, depending on the model, Banner or Yuasa. Exact equivalence depends on technology — an EFB cannot be replaced with a conventional battery in Start-Stop cars. See the "Equivalents" section to view recommended options at the same performance level.
