It measures 518 × 279 × 240 mm and the positive terminal on the right, the format sought by anyone replacing a 225 Ah battery in trucks. - Heavy Duty construction for intensive professional use. - Conventional lead-acid: the most proven and economical technology. - Designed for 24 V installations with two batteries in series. - Powerful cold cranking for large-displacement diesel engines. ### What the Exide EG2254 is for Designed for trucks, buses, tractors and heavy machinery, the Exide EG2254 withstands constant chassis vibration and discharges during stops with active loads. Check that it matches your current battery in dimensions, terminals and hold-down: this reference has a weight of 54.90 kg and 1 terminals. ### The Exide EG2254: Start PRO range and conventional lead-acid technology The EG2254 is part of the Exide **Start PRO** range. Choosing the right reference within the series comes down to capacity, dimensions and terminals: technology and quality are common to the whole family. 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. ### Will it fit your current battery tray? In terms of format, the Exide EG2254 measures 518 × 279 × 240 mm (length × width × height) and weighs 54.90 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 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. ### Exide: the maker behind the EG2254 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. ### Usage and maintenance tips Keep the terminals clean and tight and the battery firmly secured against chassis vibration. During rest stops with active loads, avoid repeated deep discharges: they shorten the life of any starter battery. ### Warranty and coverage The Exide EG2254 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**. ### Shipping, delivery and returns Orders placed **before [[ks:cutoff]]** 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 **[[ks:return_days]] 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. ## Frequently asked questions ### How is the Exide EG2254 battery installed in the vehicle? In most trucks 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 trucks with Start-Stop or BMS, register the battery via OBD so the alternator applies the correct charging profile. ### How long does the Exide EG2254 battery last? Expected lifespan of the Exide EG2254 is 4 to 6 years in regular truck 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 EG2254 model? Dimensions (length × width × height) are 518×274×240 mm — also written as 518x274x240 mm — following the European DIN standard. Always measure the space in your truck before buying: even one extra millimetre can prevent the hold-down clamp from closing. The height shown includes the terminals. ### Does this battery fit my truck? 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 EG2254 typically fits a wide range of European vehicles thanks to its standard DIN case format. ### Which interchangeable batteries are there for this one? 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 trucks. See the "Equivalents" section to view recommended options at the same performance level. ## Equivalent batteries - [EXIDE EG2154](https://baterias.com/gb/battery-exide-eg2154-12v-215ah-1200a) - [TUDOR TG2254](https://baterias.com/gb/battery-tudor-tg2254-12v-225ah-1200a) ## Technical team (editorial authorship) The FAQs, guides and comparisons on this site are reviewed by the baterias.com technical team — over 25 years of experience validating automotive batteries. → https://baterias.com/gb/technical-team --- *baterias.com — Automotive batteries · 2026-10-02*
