The Exide EC412 from the Classic range is rated at 12 V, 41 Ah and 370 A of cold cranking current (EN), a common choice for classic and vintage cars with their original electrical system. Its 207 × 175 × 175 mm and the positive terminal on the right make it the exact replacement for the 41 Ah battery fitted as standard to many classic cars.
- Behaves well after long periods without use.
- Good balance of capacity, cranking power and price.
- Low self-discharge for cars that rarely leave the garage.
- Safe starting for carburettor engines and classic ignition.

Will it fit your current battery tray?
The Exide EC412 is made in the 207 × 175 × 175 mm format and weighs 10.60 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. Checking the three dimensions and the terminal position before buying avoids the most common mistake when replacing a battery.
The Exide EC412: Classic range and conventional lead-acid technology
The EC412 is part of the Exide Classic range. Choosing the right reference within the series comes down to capacity, dimensions and terminals: technology and quality are common to the whole family.
Conventional lead-acid is the benchmark against which other technologies are compared: good cranking current, great tolerance to alternator charging and the best price per amp-hour.
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.
Manufacturer's warranty
The Exide EC412 comes with the manufacturer's official warranty against manufacturing defects. The warranty does not cover deep discharge through inactivity: in a classic, a trickle charger is the best protection.
Care and maintenance
On batteries with filler caps, check the electrolyte level and top up only with distilled water. A classic car often stands for long spells: a trickle charger connected in the garage is the best investment for the battery.
When you get it and how to return it
Orders placed before 6:00 pm with the battery in stock ship the same day. Delivery in mainland Spain and Portugal takes 24-48 working hours; for the Balearic and Canary Islands and the rest of the European Union allow 3 to 5 working days. You have 14 days to return an unused battery; in mainland Spain and Portugal collection is free. We email you the tracking number as soon as the parcel ships.

How to change the battery
Step-by-step guide to replace your car battery in 15-30 minutes (longer if the battery is under the seat or in the boot) without losing vehicle settings.
Step 1. Prepare the vehicle
Park on a flat surface, switch off the engine and remove the key. Make sure all lights and electrical accessories are off. Wait 1-2 minutes before starting.
Step 2. Locate the battery
Open the bonnet. The battery is usually in the engine bay, but in many modern cars it may be in the boot or under the passenger seat. Check the manual if you cannot find it.
Step 3. Disconnect the negative (−) terminal
Use the 10 mm wrench to loosen the negative cable nut (black, marked −) and remove the cable from the post. Move it aside so it cannot touch any bodywork.
Step 4. Disconnect the positive (+) terminal
Repeat with the positive cable (red, marked +). Important: never let a terminal touch metal of the car while the other is still connected.
Step 5. Remove the old battery
Loosen the bottom hold-down clamp with the same wrench. Lift the battery carefully (it can weigh 15-25 kg). Clean the tray with a brush and baking soda if there is corrosion.
Step 6. Install the new battery
Place the battery in the same orientation as the old one (positive terminal on the same side). Tighten the hold-down clamp firmly.
Step 7. Connect the cables
Connect the positive (+) terminal first, then the negative (−). Tighten the nuts with the wrench until each terminal does not move. Apply anti-spark grease if you have any.
Step 8. Verify the engine starts
Close the bonnet. Start the engine to confirm everything works. On cars with Start-Stop or a BMS, you may need to register the battery via OBD so the alternator applies the correct charging profile.
Frequently asked questions
How do I change this battery step by step?
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 this page. 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 — 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 EC412 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 are the measurements of the EC412 model?
Dimensions (length × width × height) are 207×175×175 mm — also written as 207x175x175 mm and correspond to the European LB1 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.
Is the EC412 valid for my vehicle?
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 EC412 fits 113 verified vehicle versions in our database.
What are the equivalents of the EC412 model?
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.
