## Description

## Car battery Long 48D26R Starting Series 50Ah 12V

12*V* Voltage
50*Ah* Capacity
9.62*kg* Weight

The **Long 48D26R car battery** is rated at **12 V**, **50 Ah** from the **Starting Series** range, and is designed for passenger cars with conventional starting, without a Start-Stop system. It replaces the original battery without adaptation in cars with a 260 × 173 × 225 mm format: same 50 Ah capacity.
- Reliable cold starts, even after weeks without driving.
- Original-equipment build quality without the dealership price.
- Direct replacement for the original battery in size and terminals.
- Low self-discharge: copes with long stops without losing charge.

### Dimensions, polarity and mounting

The Long 48D26R is made in the 260 × 173 × 225 mm format and weighs 9.62 kg. 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.

### What the Long 48D26R is for

The Long 48D26R covers the needs of passenger cars with conventional starting, without a Start-Stop system: reliable starting, stable voltage for the electronics and a service life of several years in daily use. Check that it matches your current battery in size and terminal position. Check that it matches your current battery in dimensions, terminals and hold-down: this reference has a weight of 9.62 kg.

### The Long 48D26R within the Starting Series range

The **Starting Series** is the Long range the 48D26R 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.

### Why choose Long batteries

Long batteries combine large-scale production with ISO quality standards and a batch-to-batch consistency that has made them the de-facto standard in backup systems and electric mobility. All the Long batteries in our catalogue are genuine product, recently manufactured and covered by the manufacturer's warranty.

### Manufacturer's warranty

The Long 48D26R 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.

### Care and maintenance

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. Keep the terminals clean and tight, and check that the resting voltage does not drop below 12.4 V: below that it is time to recharge.

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

Order **before [[ks:cutoff]]** 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 **[[ks:return_days]] days** to return it if it has not been installed, with free collection on the mainland, and shipment tracking by email.

## 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 our blog. 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 Long 48D26R is 4 to 7 years in regular use (depends on technology and climate). 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 48D26R model?

Dimensions (length × width × height) are 260×173×225 mm — also written as 260x173x225 mm — 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 48D26R 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 48D26R typically fits a wide range of European vehicles thanks to its standard DIN case format.

### What are the equivalents of the 48D26R 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.
