With **60 Ah** at **12 V**, the **Long 55D26R** from the **Starting Series** range is a starter battery built for passenger cars with conventional starting, without a Start-Stop system. Its 260 × 173 × 225 mm make it the exact replacement for the 60 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).
- Direct replacement for the original battery in size and terminals.

### What the Long 55D26R is for

Designed for passenger cars with conventional starting, without a Start-Stop system, the Long 55D26R is the direct replacement when your vehicle uses a 60 Ah battery of this format. Before buying, compare dimensions, terminals and capacity with the battery you are replacing. Check that it matches your current battery in dimensions, terminals and hold-down: this reference has a weight of 12 kg.

### Will it fit your current battery tray?

The Long 55D26R is made in the 260 × 173 × 225 mm format and weighs 12 kg. Checking the three dimensions and the terminal position before buying avoids the most common mistake when replacing a battery.

### What Long does differently

Long (Kung Long Batteries) is one of the world's largest manufacturers of sealed VRLA batteries. Its AGM and GEL series for UPS, mobility, alarms and cycling are found in equipment worldwide as original equipment. We guarantee that every Long arrives new, charged and with the manufacturer's full warranty.

### The Long 55D26R within the Starting Series range

The **Starting Series** is the Long range the 55D26R 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.

### Usage and maintenance tips

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. 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.

### Warranty and coverage

The Long 55D26R 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 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

### How do I fit the 55D26R 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 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 (−).

### How long does the Long 55D26R battery last?

Expected lifespan of the Long 55D26R 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 55D26R 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 55D26R 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 55D26R typically fits a wide range of European vehicles thanks to its standard DIN case format.

### What are the equivalents of the 55D26R 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.
