With **61 Ah** at **12 V** and **600 A** of cold cranking current (EN), the **Fulmen FA612** from the **Formula Xtreme** range is a starter battery built for passenger cars with conventional starting, without a Start-Stop system. Its 242 × 175 × 175 mm and the positive terminal on the right make it the exact replacement for the 61 Ah battery fitted as standard to many cars.
- Designed to last several years under normal daily use.
- Low self-discharge: copes with long stops without losing charge.
- Stable voltage for the vehicle electronics (ECU, sensors, climate control).
- Good balance of capacity, cranking power and price.

### Vehicles compatible with the Fulmen FA612

This battery appears as compatible in more than 567 vehicles from manufacturers such as Ford, Opel, Vauxhall, Renault, Chevrolet and Nissan. For anyone who needs to replace the **battery in their Ford** or Opel, this Fulmen FA612 reproduces the original specifications. Models from Lotus, Dacia, Rover, Seat, MG, Fiat, Suzuki and Honda are added to that list. In our database it is cross-referenced against 175 original-equipment part numbers, which gives an idea of its real coverage.

### Will it fit your current battery tray?

In terms of format, the Fulmen FA612 measures 242 × 175 × 175 mm (length × width × height) and weighs 14 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 B13 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.

### Why choose Fulmen batteries

With more than a century of history, Fulmen offers complete ranges for cars, trucks, motorcycles and leisure with the industrial quality of the Exide group. At baterias.com we work directly with the manufacturer or its official distributor: real stock, brand-new product and official warranty.

### The Fulmen FA612: Formula Xtreme range and conventional lead-acid technology

The **Formula Xtreme** is the Fulmen range the FA612 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.
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.

### How to make it last longer

In normal daily use the alternator keeps the battery charged; if the car stands for weeks, a maintenance charge once a month prevents deep discharge. Avoid leaving lights or accessories on with the engine off: most batteries fail not through defects but through repeated deep discharges.

### Warranty and coverage

The Fulmen FA612 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.

### When you get it and how to return it

Same-day dispatch from our warehouse for in-stock orders placed **before [[ks:cutoff]]**: 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 **[[ks:return_days]] days** if the battery has not been used (free collection on the Iberian mainland). You will receive tracking by email.

## Frequently asked questions

### How do I fit the FA612 model in my car?

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.

### What is the service life of the FA612 model?

Expected lifespan of the Fulmen FA612 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 dimensions of the Fulmen FA612 battery?

Dimensions (length × width × height) are 242×175×175 mm — also written as 242x175x175 mm and correspond to the European LB2 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.

### Does this battery fit my car?

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 FA612 fits 567 verified vehicle versions in our database.

### 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 cars. See the "Equivalents" section to view recommended options at the same performance level.
