## How to know which battery your VOLKSWAGEN Passat Alltrack B8 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.

Another route is the vehicle paperwork: the registration date places you in one of the generations listed. In the overlap years, body style is the detail that separates them.

Before ordering, inspect your existing battery: its label lists the Ah and the starting amps. The replacement must match or beat both — never fall short — and share the same size and positive terminal side.

## Start-Stop: which battery your Passat Alltrack B8 needs

If your Passat Alltrack B8 has Start-Stop, the battery works far harder than usual — hundreds of restarts a day rather than a handful. That calls for EFB or AGM, depending on whether the system is basic or includes regenerative braking. A conventional battery there lasts months and can make the car switch Start-Stop off.

## Frequently asked questions

### Which battery does a VOLKSWAGEN Passat Alltrack B8 take?
It depends on the generation and engine: there are 23 compatible batteries in total, from 41 to 100 Ah and 360 to 850 A of cold cranking. The best sellers for this model are Car battery Varta E11 12V 74Ah 680A, Car battery Varta E44 12V 77Ah 780A, Start-Stop battery Varta A7 12V 70Ah 760A AGM. With your plate we tell you the exact one in seconds.

### How much does a VOLKSWAGEN Passat Alltrack B8 battery cost?
Between 45.10 € and 169.95 €, VAT included, depending on capacity and technology (lead-acid, AGM, EFB). 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 Passat Alltrack B8 is?
By the registration year: Passat Alltrack B8 Variant (2015-2025); Passat B8 (2014-2025); Passat B8 Variant (2014-2025); Passat Alltrack B7 (2012-2014); Passat B7 II (2011-2020); Passat B7 I (2010-2016). 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.

### Can I fit a battery with more amps?
Yes, as long as the dimensions fit the tray and the terminal layout matches. More capacity (Ah) and more cold cranking (A) do not harm the vehicle: the alternator charges it the same and you gain margin in winter. What you must never do is go below the original figures.

### How long does a VOLKSWAGEN Passat Alltrack B8 battery last?
Between 4 and 6 years in normal use. Start-Stop batteries (AGM/EFB) tend to last slightly less in city driving because of the number of starts, but they are designed for that cycling. If the car sits unused for weeks or you notice slow cranking in the cold, get it checked.
