Where it fits: the Exide ED851T is one of our car batteries, belongs to our Exide batteries and by capacity it sits among our 85Ah batteries.
The Exide ED851T in practice
When not to choose it
Rule it out if the car has Start-Stop, even if the dimensions match: conventional technology cannot take that cycling. And always keep at least the original Ah and A.

Van battery Exide ED851T Endurance+Pro GEL 85Ah 350A 12V
Designed for vans and light commercial vehicles on delivery duty, the Exide ED851T from the Endurance+Pro GEL range adds 85 Ah and 350 A of cold cranking current (EN) to start under load and stop dozens of times a day. Its 349 × 175 × 235 mm and the positive terminal on the left make it the exact replacement for the 85 Ah battery fitted as standard to many vans.
- Reliable starting with a loaded vehicle in the cold.
- Longer service life than a passenger-car battery of the same size.
- Powers auxiliary equipment with the engine off.
- GEL: excellent resistance to deep discharge and long cycle life.
What the Exide ED851T is for
With 85 Ah, the Exide ED851T is the direct replacement for vans and light commercial vehicles on delivery duty that use this format. Check that it matches your current battery in dimensions, terminals and hold-down: this reference has a weight of 29.50 kg, EN taper post terminals and B0 hold-down.
Dimensions, polarity and mounting
The Exide ED851T is made in the 349 × 175 × 235 mm format and weighs 29.50 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 B0 hold-down and EN taper post terminals, the system that anchors and connects it in the vehicle. Before replacing it, measure your current battery tray: if all three dimensions and the terminal positions match, the swap is direct and needs no adapters.
Exide: the maker behind the ED851T
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. All the Exide batteries in our catalogue are genuine product, recently manufactured and covered by the manufacturer's warranty.
The Exide ED851T: Endurance+Pro GEL range and GEL technology
The Endurance+Pro GEL is the Exide range the ED851T belongs to: it shares the same construction and quality criteria with the rest of the series, and varies in capacity and format to suit each vehicle.
GEL technology fixes the acid in a solid gel. That removes maintenance and leaks and gives very long cycle life, in exchange for slightly slower recharging and lower peak current than an AGM.
Care and maintenance
Keep the terminals clean and the battery firmly secured: vibration under load is the main enemy in delivery vehicles. GEL batteries need lower charging voltages: always use a charger with a GEL mode so as not to damage the electrolyte.
Warranty and coverage
The Exide ED851T comes with the manufacturer's official warranty against manufacturing defects. If it fails through a defect within the period, we replace it free of charge.
Shipping, delivery 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
Is the ED851T model a gel battery? Where is it used?
Yes. The Exide ED851T is GEL: sealed lead-acid in which the electrolyte is a gel. Take care when charging: it requires a smart charger with a GEL mode, because it accepts a lower charge voltage than an AGM. It tolerates deep discharges very well and is ideal for cyclic use (solar, motorhomes, electric wheelchairs, motorcycles).
How is the Exide ED851T battery installed in the vehicle?
Steps: 1) switch off and remove the key; 2) find the battery (bonnet, boot or under a seat); 3) undo the negative (−), then the positive (+); 4) remove the clamp and the old battery; 5) fit the new one facing the same way (positive on the left) to match the polarity; 6) connect the positive (+) and finally the negative (−). Tool: a 10 mm spanner. Time: 15-30 minutes on almost every car, and up to double if the battery is not under the bonnet but in the boot or under a seat. If the car manufacturer lists any extra step in the handbook, follow it. More detail in how to replace the car battery.
What is the service life of the ED851T model?
As a rough estimate, the Exide ED851T typically lasts 6 to 10 years in cyclic use (marine, caravan, solar) with controlled discharges; it is a guide figure, not a guaranteed period. What weighs most: temperature (cold makes starts harder and intense heat evaporates the electrolyte), frequent short trips, the condition of the alternator and charging system, power draw while parked and maintenance, not forgetting the type of car and Start-Stop.
What are the measurements of the ED851T model?
Length × width × height: 349x175x235 mm. Height is measured to the top of the terminals. Measure your car's battery tray first; if the battery exceeds it by even a millimetre, the hold-down clamp may not close.
On which side is the positive of the ED851T model?
Polarity of the Exide ED851T: positive on the left. Seen from the front, terminals towards you, the positive (+) is the post with the red ring. A change of polarity from the original means longer cables or a reconfigured system and can cause a short circuit: check it before ordering.
Is the ED851T valid for my vehicle?
Three routes: the "Compatible vehicles" tab on this page, with the vehicles verified by our technical team; your number plate in the finder, from which DGT/DVLA/KBA detect model and engine; and WhatsApp, with make, model, engine and year, during business hours (Mon–Fri 10:00–13:30 and 16:30–18:00 (Spanish time, CET)). If our table and the car handbook disagree, go with what the manufacturer says.
Which interchangeable batteries are there for this one?
Technology matters too: in Start-Stop cars, an EFB cannot be replaced with a conventional battery. The options at the same level are in the "Equivalents" section of this page. To replace the Exide ED851T without modifications, the other battery must be identical in size, polarity, Ah and CCA.
