The advantage: The battery has a lifetime expectancy of 2 years and longer. To reach a comparable lifetime with a regular battery would result in its drop of capacity down to 20%. Due to the special design of the VARTA ProMotive AGM however, up to 80% of the specified capacity can be utilized without significantly compromising cycle lifetime. It provides the ideal power supply for vehicles equipped with comfort and safety functions and advanced fuel- saving features such as coasting/sailing. AdBlue tanks and larger fuel tanks are displacing batteries towards the rear end of commercial vehicles. In this position, they have to be able to withstand increased vibrations in order to prevent premature failure. The VARTA ProMotive AGM addresses this challenge with its rugged casing and special fixings. Overall shorter driving times and an increased number of overnight stays make the VARTA ProMotive AGM's enhanced charge acceptance and larger number of cycles an indispensable asset in modern logistics. With this combination of features the VARTA ProMotive AGM ensures cost-effective, safe and comfortable driving. For the first time it is possible to take advantage of the full potential of commercial vehicles with an extended battery life. A BATTERY THAT'S GOOD FOR BUSINESS Fleet managers of today expect reliability from their vehicles as well as from their choice of spare parts. They put their trust in leading technologies and brands to ensure minimum risk of downtimes and constant optimization of their fleet’s total costs of ownership (TCO). According to Werle the VARTA ProMotive AGM with its outstanding performance is providing a unique value now and in the years to come: "If you already have a lot of well-equipped trucks, it’s worth upgrading them to our AGM battery. It gives drivers and fleet operators additional security against battery failures, reduces overall operating costs and ensures satisfied customers for the truck manufacturers. The VARTA ProMotive AGM is absolutely future-proof and still has a lot of free capacity available for additional energy consumers."

Getting the most out of your battery To get the best performance out of a vehicle’s battery, VARTA recommend routine preventative maintenance.To avoid premature failure, visual and voltage checks can determine if any recharging is required. Best practice maintenance: • Check battery voltage at least every 4 weeks • Recharge immediately if <12.5V • Keep record of battery maintenance history to ensure maintenance intervals are not missed • Check battery voltage after extraordinary events that might have caused a long standing time • Always charge or replace batteries as a pair, ideally from the same production batch – this helps balance the charge • Clean battery terminals – if damaged, replace the pair of batteries • Always fit the correct technology – use theVARTATruck Portal to correctly identify the right battery For more information contact your local branch WIN a Prize Bundle courtesy of VARTA!
