The Exide EF1420 in practice
EF1420 vs Exide EG1402
The Exide EF1420 offers 142 Ah and 850 A cold cranking in a 349 × 175 × 290 mm case. The Exide EG1402, same brand and technology, stays at 140 Ah and 900 A with 159 mm more length and costs €8.85 more. If you hesitate between the two at a similar price, take this one: more capacity in the same size never hurts.

Truck battery Exide EF1420 Power PRO 142Ah 850A 12V
The Exide EF1420 with conventional lead-acid technology delivers 142 Ah at 12 V and 850 A of cold cranking current (EN): what trucks, buses, tractors and heavy machinery demand. Measuring 349 × 175 × 290 mm and the positive terminal on the right, it is the direct replacement for trucks fitted from the factory with a 142 Ah battery of this format.
- Powers tachograph, fridge and heater during rest stops.
- Better tolerance to deep discharge than a conventional starter battery.
- Good balance of capacity, cranking power and price.
- Resistant to constant chassis vibration.
What the Exide EF1420 is for
The Exide EF1420 is designed for trucks, buses, tractors and heavy machinery. In 24 V installations with two batteries in series, replace both at the same time to avoid imbalance. Check that it matches your current battery in dimensions, terminals and hold-down: this reference has a weight of 35.10 kg, 1 terminals and B0 hold-down.
Size, terminals and hold-down of the Exide EF1420
It has external dimensions of 349 × 175 × 290 mm and weighs 35.10 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 B0 hold-down and 1 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.
The Exide EF1420: Power PRO range and conventional lead-acid technology
The Power PRO is the Exide range the EF1420 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.
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.
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.
Warranty and coverage
The Exide EF1420 comes with the manufacturer's official warranty against manufacturing defects. An important note for commercial vehicles: most trucks use two batteries connected in series (24 V installation). If you replace only one, the new battery works alongside the old one, which has already lost capacity; that imbalance shortens its life and the manufacturer may treat it as misuse. Always replace both at the same time.
Care and maintenance
On batteries with filler caps, check the electrolyte level and top up only with distilled water. During rest stops with active loads, avoid repeated deep discharges: they shorten the life of any starter battery.
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
Why does my lorry have two batteries?
Most lorries, buses and tractors run on 24 V with two 12 V batteries connected in series. Always replace both at the same time and with the same model: if one is new and the other old, they become unbalanced and both last less.
How long does the Exide EF1420 battery last?
Estimated lifespan of the Exide EF1420: 4 to 6 years in normal lorry use. 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 truck and Start-Stop also count.
What are the dimensions of the Exide EF1420 battery?
Its dimensions are 349×175×290 mm, also written 349x175x290 mm; the height already includes the terminals. Check the room available in your truck, because a single millimetre too much can stop the clamp from closing.
What polarity does the Exide EF1420 battery have?
The EF1420 has the positive on the right: that is its polarity. It must match your current battery: reversed polarity means lengthening cables or reconfiguring the system, with a risk of short circuit. Face the battery with its terminals nearest you and see which side the positive post (+, red ring) is on.
Is the EF1420 valid for my vehicle?
The EF1420 fits 276 verified vehicle versions in our database. 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)). Always cross-check with what the truck manufacturer states in the owner's handbook.
Which interchangeable batteries are there for this one?
Not just any technology will do: an EFB cannot be replaced with a conventional battery in Start-Stop trucks. The "Equivalents" section further down lists the recommended alternatives. Interchangeable means the same dimensions, same polarity, same Ah and same CCA; for the EF1420, 142 Ah (850 A cranking).
Exide EF1420 or Tudor TF1420: which one to choose?
Same case and same technology as the EF1420: an alternative by size, not an official equivalent. Compared with the EF1420 it has the same Ah and cranking power. It costs 43,95 € more. If the polarity matches and your truck had a similar capacity, it works as a replacement; if in doubt, ask us with your model.
