Varta F17: car battery 12V 80Ah 740A
The Varta F17 is the 12 V, 80 Ah, 740 A (EN cold cranking) car battery from the Varta Dynamic SLI (formerly Blue Dynamic) range, for petrol and diesel cars with a conventional starter and no Start-Stop. 315 × 175 × 175 mm case with the positive terminal on the right: a direct replacement for any original battery of this size.
In short: the Varta F17 (80 Ah, 740 A, 315 × 175 × 175 mm, positive terminal on the right) is one of the 20 best-selling batteries at baterias.com over the last 3 months, rated 4.50 out of 5 by 16 customers. It is a conventional battery for cars without Start-Stop: if yours has Start-Stop, it needs an EFB or AGM battery of the same size. Verified equivalent alternatives: Tudor TB802 and Exide EB802.

Format and fitting of the Varta F17
The Varta F17 measures 315 × 175 × 175 mm (length × width × height) and weighs 17.89 kg. The positive terminal on the right determines which side the cables end up on: it is the detail that causes the most buying mistakes, so it is worth checking before you order. It has a B13 hold-down, the system that anchors it to the vehicle's battery tray, and standard conical terminals (type 1). Before replacing it, measure the space your current battery occupies: if it matches on all three dimensions and on terminal position, the swap is direct and needs no adapters.
The Varta F17 and the Dynamic SLI range
The Dynamic SLI is Varta's entry range for vehicles with traditional starting (no Start-Stop), gathering what used to be the Blue, Silver and Black Dynamic series under a single name by technology. Its lead-calcium construction with optimised separators prioritises punchy starting and a long, maintenance-free life.
It covers the vast majority of conventional petrol and diesel cars on the European market. It is the sensible choice when you want German manufacturing quality without paying the premium for AGM or EFB technology the vehicle does not need. This battery used to belong to Varta's Blue Dynamic range; following the brand's commercial renaming (2025), it now forms part of the new Dynamic SLI series.

Tenía instalada la de casa en un Ford Mondeo gasoil sin start stop. La de casa duró 6 años salió buena. Esta marca me da buenas prestaciones y duración. La tenía en otro coche y sigue bien ya va para 2 años. Recomiendo Varta por calidad precio. Y esta webs sin problemas. Habré comprado ya 4 baterías con ellos y ningún problema.
La he montado en un ford focus 1.8 tdi de 2007 con el que hago 10.000 km al año y duerme en la calle. Es la segunda vez que la compro y la anterior me duró unos 5 años. La cambié yo en la calle y cabe perfectamenta en el hueco del coche, mirando un video es fácil de hacer.
Todo perfecto . La batería funciona muy bien
Rápido envío, buen precio y batería con magnífica calidad. Yo la uso en opel insignia 2.0 diesel
La compré para un Ford Focus C-MAX, diesel. No tuve ningun problema de instalación ya que encaja perfectamente en el hueco.La fecha de fabricación era muy reciente. El arranque en frio es siempre a la primera.
Todo perfecto
A fecha de hoy está como el primer día. Envío rápido.
lo pedí un martes por la tarde y me llegó un miércoles a las 9 de la mañana. Es cierto que me urgía y pedí el envío express pero aun así me sorprendió. Experiencia 10 de 10
La anterior que cogí, si no la misma, similar, me ha durado 7 años
La batería llegó en un día, la rapidez será tb que soy de cerca. Repetire

Frequently asked questions
How do I fit the F17 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 — with positive on the right 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 F17 model?
Expected lifespan of the Varta F17 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 Varta F17 battery?
Dimensions (length × width × height) are 315×175×175 mm — also written as 315x175x175 mm and correspond to the European LB4 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.
What polarity does the Varta F17 battery have?
Polarity: positive on the right. To identify it, place the battery in front of you with the terminals facing you and check which side the positive (+, marked with a red ring) is on. Before buying, verify the polarity matches your current battery: switching polarity forces longer cables or system reconfiguration, with short-circuit risk.
Under which reference is the Varta F17 listed in catalogues?
The manufacturer reference (MPN) is F17 and its ETN code is 5804060743132 (short form 580 406 074), the European identifier used in spare-part catalogues. The EAN-13 barcode is 4016987167687. It belongs to the Varta Dynamic SLI range. Any of these codes identifies exactly this battery when requesting quotes or comparing prices.
Will the Varta F17 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 F17 fits 139 verified vehicle versions in our database.
Which batteries are equivalent to the Varta F17?
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.
