## How to know which battery your Toyota Cressida takes

Easiest of all is the number plate lookup: those few characters tell us the precise variant, the engine and the original battery, so you need not check anything else.

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.

## Frequently asked questions

### Which battery does a Toyota Cressida take?
It depends on the generation and engine: there are 3 compatible batteries in total, from 60 to 95 Ah and 540 to 830 A of cold cranking. The best sellers for this model are Car battery Varta G7 Dynamic SLI 12V 95Ah 830A, Car battery Varta E23 Dynamic SLI 12V 70Ah 630A, Car battery Varta D47 Dynamic SLI 12V 60Ah 540A. With your plate we tell you the exact one in seconds.

### How much does a Toyota Cressida battery cost?
Between 69.95 € and 96.90 €, VAT included, depending on capacity and technology (lead-acid). Start-Stop versions (AGM or EFB) sit at the top of the range because they withstand many more cycles.

### How do I know which generation my Cressida is?
By the registration year: Cressida Saloon I (1990-1992); Cressida Saloon II (1990-1992); Cressida Estate (1990-1992); Cressida Saloon III (1990-1996). 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.

### How quickly can I get a battery for my Toyota Cressida?
Standard delivery to mainland Spain and Portugal takes 1-2 working days; other EU countries 4-7 working days. Each product page shows the exact lead time and whether express delivery is available.

### Can I fit a higher-capacity battery to my Toyota Cressida?
Yes, as long as the dimensions fit the tray and the terminal layout matches. More Ah and more cold-cranking amps do not harm the Toyota Cressida: the alternator charges it just the same and you gain margin in winter. Never go below the original values.
