Frequently asked questions

It depends on the engine. Subaru Legacy owners mostly buy Varta D47 Dynamic SLI 60Ah (69.95 €), Varta G7 Dynamic SLI 95Ah (96.90 €) and Varta G8 Dynamic SLI 95Ah (100.90 €) 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 54.40 € and 110.80 €, VAT included, depending on capacity and technology (lead-acid, EFB). Start-Stop versions (AGM or EFB) sit at the top of the range because they withstand many more cycles.
By the registration year: Legacy VI (2015-2025); Legacy V (2009-2025); Legacy V Estate (2008-2014); Legacy IV (2003-2015); Legacy IV Estate (2003-2009); Legacy III Estate (1998-2003). 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.
It lasts only a few months: Start-Stop puts the battery through hundreds of cycles a day and a conventional battery cannot cope. The ECU may also disable the automatic stop function. Always fit EFB or AGM, the same technology as the original.
Typical signs: sluggish cranking in the cold, headlights dimming on start-up, a battery warning on the dash or electronics resetting. A workshop can check resting voltage (below 12.4 V means discharged) and cranking capacity in a minute.

How to know which battery your Subaru Legacy takes

The quickest and safest route is to enter your number plate: we identify the exact version, its engine and the battery fitted at the factory, with no room for error.

You can also work it out yourself: find the registration date in the vehicle documents and locate it in the table. If the year overlaps two generations, the body style — hatch, estate or coupé — tells them apart.

One last check: the label on the fitted battery gives you the reference capacity and cold cranking. Match or improve those numbers, and make sure the case size and polarity suit your battery tray.

Start-Stop: which battery your Legacy needs

Start-Stop on the modern Legacy changes the rules: the battery takes hundreds of micro-cycles daily. The correct answer is EFB for basic systems and AGM where braking energy is recovered. Dropping to a conventional battery is the most expensive mistake you can make here.
