New Automotive and CV Batteries Join The Range.

In September 2014, VARTA announced two new developments, which are now available through the Manbat branch network. The first is the introduction of new EFB and AGM models into the Dynamic automotive range, and the second, although less relevant to the automotive sector, is the addition of the Promotive EFB heavy-duty battery.

As Europe’s principal leader in original equipment (OE) Start-Stop battery technology, VARTA is constantly developing its products and pioneering alternative solutions to ensure that vehicle manufacturers and the wider aftermarket can benefit from its power storage expertise.

As a result, the existing Dynamic trio offering (BLACK, BLUE and SILVER), has been complemented by two cutting-edge technologies, AGM (Absorbed Glass Mat) and EFB.

The VARTA SILVER Dynamic AGM battery, which is manufactured in Germany, provides massive starting power, faster conductivity and offers three times the level of endurance of its conventional counterpart. It is also the natural choice for vehicles incorporating advanced Start-Stop technology with regenerative braking.

The VARTA BLUE Dynamic EFB battery is characterised by twice the level of endurance of a conventional lead-acid battery and is the ideal solution for entry-level vehicles fitted with a Start-Stop system.

Both the AGM and EFB batteries come with superb cyclic performance (charge, discharge, charges) and provide workshops and their customers with the very best when it comes to reliability and starting power. VARTA has also invested in the manufacturing process for these models as both are now manufactured using 20% less energy and producing 20% less greenhouse gas emissions.

Commenting on the range additions, Manbat’s marketing manager, Myles Pemberton said: When it comes to the new automotive batteries, it is great to be able to offer factors and their workshop customers the very best, for those solutions where nothing else will do and for the growing demand for a quality Start-Stop battery replacement. In addition their high quality made in Europe and eco-friendly credentials set them apart.”
