Frequently asked questions
- It depends on the engine. Land Rover Defender owners mostly buy Varta H17 ProMotive 105Ah (100.70 €), Varta E44 Dynamic SLI 77Ah (85.40 €) and Varta E24 Dynamic SLI 70Ah (80.70 €) from us. The table shows the recommended battery for each engine with its price (VAT included) and a link to its page; with your number plate or VIN we tell you the exact one in seconds.
- Between 80.70 € and 192.59 €, VAT included, depending on capacity and technology (lead-acid, AGM). Start-Stop versions (AGM or EFB) sit at the top of the range because they withstand many more cycles.
- By the registration year: Rover Defender Van (2020-2025); Rover Defender Station Wagon II (2019-2025); Rover Defender Pick Up (1994-2017); Rover Defender Station Wagon I (1990-2017); Rover Defender Cabrio (1990-2016); Rover Defender Platform/Chassis (1990-2016). If your year falls in the overlap between two generations, tell them apart by body type (hatchback, estate or coupé) or use the plate finder, which settles it with no doubt.
- On most versions, yes: disconnect the negative terminal first, then the positive, release the clamp and fit the new battery in reverse order. On Start-Stop models or cars with battery management (BMS), register the new battery with a diagnostic tool so the ECU adjusts charging.
- Four to six years in normal use. Start-Stop batteries (AGM/EFB) tend to last a little less in city driving because of the number of restarts, but they are built for that cycling. If the car sits for weeks or cranks slowly in the cold, have it tested.
