Car battery Exide EB858 Excell 85Ah 800A 12V

The Exide EB858 car battery is rated at 12 V, 85 Ah and 800 A of cold cranking current (EN) from the Excell range, and is designed for passenger cars with conventional starting, without a Start-Stop system. Measuring 306 × 192 × 192 mm and the positive terminal on the left, it is the direct replacement for cars fitted from the factory with a 85 Ah battery of this format.

In short: the Exide EB858 (85 Ah, 800 A, 306 × 192 × 192 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.

• Good balance of capacity, cranking power and price.
• Stable voltage for the vehicle electronics (ECU, sensors, climate control).
• Low self-discharge: copes with long stops without losing charge.
• Designed to last several years under normal daily use.

What the Exide EB858 is for

With 85 Ah, the Exide EB858 is sized for passenger cars with conventional starting, without a Start-Stop system. It is a direct replacement for the original battery as long as dimensions and terminals match. Check that it matches your current battery in dimensions, terminals and hold-down: this reference has a weight of 19.50 kg, EN taper post terminals and B1 hold-down.

Will it fit your current battery tray?

It has external dimensions of 306 × 192 × 192 mm and weighs 19.50 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 B1 hold-down and EN taper post 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

Exide is one of the world's largest battery manufacturers and an original-equipment supplier to many car makers. Its European plants produce starter, industrial and leisure batteries under original-equipment quality controls. All the Exide batteries in our catalogue are genuine product, recently manufactured and covered by the manufacturer's warranty.

The Exide EB858: Excell range and conventional lead-acid technology

Within the Exide catalogue, the Excell series groups the references designed for this use. The EB858 is the 85 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.

Usage and maintenance tips

Keep the terminals clean and tight, and check that the resting voltage does not drop below 12.4 V: below that it is time to recharge. Avoid leaving lights or accessories on with the engine off: most batteries fail not through defects but through repeated deep discharges.

Manufacturer's warranty

The Exide EB858 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.
