Tudor TG1803 · Truck battery 12V 180Ah 1000A

Truck battery Tudor TG1803 Start PRO (Hd) 180Ah 1,000A 12V

The Tudor TG1803 with conventional lead-acid technology delivers 180 Ah at 12 V and 1,000 A of cold cranking current (EN): what trucks, buses, tractors and heavy machinery demand. Measuring 513 × 223 × 223 mm and the positive terminal on the left, it is the direct replacement for trucks fitted from the factory with a 180 Ah battery of this format.

In short: the Tudor TG1803 (180 Ah, 1000 A, 513 × 223 × 223 mm, positive terminal on the left). Verified equivalent alternatives: Varta M18 and Exide EG1803.

• 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.

Size, terminals and hold-down of the Tudor TG1803

It has external dimensions of 513 × 223 × 223 mm and weighs 42.80 kg. The positive terminal on the left 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 EN taper post 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 Tudor TG1803: Start PRO (Hd) range and conventional lead-acid technology

Within the Tudor catalogue, the Start PRO (Hd) series groups the references designed for this use. The TG1803 is the 180 Ah model of that family, with the same performance as its siblings in other sizes.

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 Tudor does differently

Tudor is Spain's historic battery brand, today part of the Exide group. Its car, truck, motorcycle and leisure ranges are built with the same technology and controls as the group's original-equipment references. At baterias.com we work directly with the manufacturer or its official distributor: real stock, brand-new product and official warranty.

Official warranty

The Tudor TG1803 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.

Usage and maintenance tips

On batteries with filler caps, check the electrolyte level and top up only with distilled water. In 24 V installations, check periodically that both batteries show the same voltage; an imbalance means one is failing.

Delivery times and returns

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.
