## Description

## Varta L14 ProMotive SLI (formerly ProMotive HD) 150Ah 760A 6V Lorry Battery

6*V* Voltage
150*Ah* Capacity
760*A* Cold cranking
23*kg* Weight

The **Varta L14 lorry battery** is the **6 V**, **150 Ah** model delivering **760 A** of cold cranking power (EN), from Varta's **ProMotive SLI (formerly ProMotive HD)** range, designed for lorries, buses, large vans and machinery. Its 333 × 175 × 235 mm dimensions and positive terminal on the right make it the exact replacement for the 150 Ah battery fitted as standard in many lorries.
- Reinforced grids and casing for the severe demands of haulage.
- Dependable through repeated starts and while powering cab equipment.
- High cranking current for large-capacity diesel engines.
- Withstands the vibration of thousands of kilometres on the road.

### Applications of the Varta L14 battery

The Varta L14 covers the needs of lorries, buses, large vans and machinery with 150 Ah of capacity and a construction built for that use. Check that it matches your current battery in dimensions, terminals and hold-down: this reference weighs 23 kg and has terminal 1 and a B11 hold-down.

### Format and fitting of the Varta L14

In format, the Varta L14 measures 333 × 175 × 235 mm (length × width × height) and weighs 23 kg. The positive terminal on the right determines which side the cables end up on: this is the detail behind more wrong purchases than any other, so it is worth checking before you order. It takes a B11 hold-down and terminal 1, the system that anchors it to the vehicle's battery tray. Checking the three dimensions and the terminal position before buying avoids the most common mistake when replacing a battery.

### The Varta L14 and the ProMotive SLI range

The **ProMotive SLI** is Varta's starter battery range for commercial and industrial vehicles; it consolidates the former ProMotive HD and SHD names into a single series organised by technology. It delivers high cold cranking current and a construction designed for the severe demands of heavy haulage.
It is the reliable replacement for lorries, buses, tractor units and machinery working long shifts: resistance to road vibration, tolerance of cycling and guaranteed starting even after weeks standing idle.
Compared with a car battery, this range is calibrated for severe, continuous use: greater mechanical strength and more tolerance of cycling and of the knocks of the road. It is the correct replacement for a lorry, bus or machine working long shifts. *This battery used to belong to Varta's **ProMotive HD** or **ProMotive SHD** range; following the brand's commercial renaming (2025), it now forms part of the new **ProMotive SLI** series.*

### Why choose a Varta battery

Varta is a byword for reliability: original equipment in a great many European vehicles and one of the most proven brands on the market. Replacing your battery with a Varta restores OEM quality — the same performance as the factory-fitted unit — with the manufacturer's backing behind it.
Behind Varta is Clarios, one of the largest manufacturers of starter batteries in the world and a supplier to the assembly lines of numerous car brands. That German engineering heritage translates into reliable starting year after year.
Varta's production combines automated lines with verification of more than 100 parameters per unit; that traceability is what underpins its reputation for reliable starting throughout the battery's life.

### Manufacturer's warranty

The Varta L14 battery comes with **a 1-year official warranty** from the manufacturer. An important warning for commercial vehicles: most lorries run **two batteries connected in series** (a 24 V installation). If you replace only one, the new battery ends up working alongside the old one — which has already lost capacity and has higher internal resistance — and that imbalance means one overcharges while the other falls short, shortens the life of the new unit and may be treated by the manufacturer as improper use, **voiding the warranty**. That is why it is always advisable to change **both batteries at the same time**.

### Care and maintenance

In professional use, checking the state of charge and the battery hold-down regularly prevents breakdowns on the road. Vibration and the high temperatures of the engine bay are what shortens a battery's life most, so secure mounting is key. Keeping the terminals clean and tight and checking the charging system extends battery life in vehicles that clock up long hours. A well-maintained battery reduces the risk of downtime caused by a battery that will not start the engine.

## Frequently asked questions

### How do I check that the Varta L14 battery fits my vehicle?

Three ways: 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 for the L14; 3) if you cannot find your model, message us on WhatsApp with brand, model, engine and year — we reply during business hours (Mon–Fri 9:00–18:00 CET).

### How do I change this battery step by step?

In most trucks 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 trucks with Start-Stop or BMS, register the battery via OBD so the alternator applies the correct charging profile.

### What warranty does the Varta L14 truck battery have?

This battery includes 1 year of official manufacturer warranty against manufacturing defects. It covers internal electrical failures and abnormal capacity drops. It does NOT cover misuse (sulfation from heavy duty without proper recharge, alternator overcharge, etc.). On confirmed defect after technical inspection, we replace the L14 at no cost.

### What is the delivery time for this battery?

In mainland Spain and Portugal it arrives in 24 h if you order before 17:00 and the battery is in stock — it leaves the same day and arrives the next business day. Afternoon or weekend orders ship the next business day. For Balearics, Canaries and other EU destinations, allow 2-5 days. Shipping cost is calculated in the cart based on destination and service (standard, express, cash on delivery). Tracking number is sent by email + SMS as soon as the parcel ships.

### Can I return the Varta L14 battery if it doesn't fit or doesn't work?

Yes. You have 14 days from delivery to return it. In mainland Spain and Portugal returns are FREE — we cover the return shipping cost via prepaid label. In other EU countries the return shipping cost is the customer's. It must arrive in its original packaging with no signs of installation. If it was defective, the warranty covers replacement even after the 14-day period.

### What is the price of the L14 model?

The current price at baterias.com is 234,43 € (VAT included; 193,74 € excl. VAT), updated every 24 hours. The applicable VAT may vary with the destination country and is confirmed in the cart. Shipping cost is calculated in the cart based on destination and chosen service (standard, express, cash on delivery).

### Where do I find the L14 model online?

At baterias.com — authorised distributor with real stock, 24h delivery in mainland Spain and Portugal if you order before 17:00, and full manufacturer warranty. Shipping cost is calculated in the cart based on destination and chosen service (standard, express, cash on delivery). Secure payment by card, Bizum, PayPal or bank transfer. If you choose at-home installation, our technician will take the used battery and dispose of it through an authorised collection point.

### How long does the Varta L14 battery last?

Expected lifespan of the Varta L14 is 4 to 6 years in regular truck 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 measurements of the L14 model?

Dimensions (length × width × height) are 333×175×235 mm — also written as 333x175x235 mm — following the European DIN standard. Always measure the space in your truck before buying: even one extra millimetre can prevent the hold-down clamp from closing. The height shown includes the terminals.

### How much does the Varta L14 battery weigh?

It weighs 23 kg. Most of the weight is lead. If you plan to fit it yourself, use gloves and a carrying strap (AGM batteries are slightly heavier than conventional due to the absorbent glass-mat fibre).

### How many amps does the Varta L14 battery have?

Nominal capacity 150 Ah[?cca: and [cold-cranking amps 760 A]] at 6 V. Ah measure the total energy available (autonomy); CCA (also written A in cold or EN under the European standard) measure the instantaneous power to crank the starter motor. A battery with more CCA starts better in winter; one with more Ah keeps accessories on for longer.

### Will the Varta L14 battery fit my truck?

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 9:00–18:00 CET). The L14 typically fits a wide range of European vehicles thanks to its standard DIN case format.

### Which batteries are equivalent to the Varta L14?

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

### Is the L14 model better than its equivalents from other brands?

This battery and its equivalents from Bosch, Tudor or Exide are technically comparable: same dimensions, same voltage and same capacity. The differences are warranty (Varta and Bosch: 2 years; Tudor and Exide: 2 years on the equivalent line), manufacturing plant (Varta and Bosch share origin in the Clarios Group; Tudor and Exide belong to Exide Technologies) and price. For private use any of these brands will give 4-6 years of life. Compare them in the "Equivalents" section.
