Varta A6 Silver Dynamic AGM Battery

12V • 80Ah • 879 CCA • AGM • LN4 Case • Positive Right

Product Overview

The Varta A6 is a premium Silver Dynamic AGM battery designed for vehicles with advanced start-stop systems, regenerative braking, and higher electrical demand. Its chemistry supports rapid recharge and strong charge acceptance, keeping voltage stable through frequent restarts and short trips—ideal for modern, BMS-managed vehicles. It was formerly called Varta F21.

Compared with conventional flooded batteries, the Silver Dynamic AGM range delivers up to three times the cycle life, helping reduce replacements while maintaining reliable power for accessories and safety systems.

Why It’s a Great Battery

  • Built for modern start-stop and regenerative braking: handles repeated high-current bursts and recovers quickly from recuperated energy, so city driving stays smooth and efficient.
  • Longer life, fewer hassles: extended cycle durability vs. standard flooded batteries makes it well suited to vehicles with heavy electronics and frequent restarts.
  • PowerFrame® grid durability: VARTA’s grid design resists corrosion and supports strong current flow for dependable starting and long service life.
  • Maintenance-free and sealed: leak-resistant construction that’s vibration-tough and requires no topping up—great for harsh climates and rough roads.
  • Correct OE-style replacement: if your vehicle already uses AGM, replacing like-for-like preserves charging strategy and start-stop function.
  • Stable voltage for accessories: supports infotainment, safety, and comfort systems without sudden dips during stop-go use.

What is the Varta A6 Silver Dynamic AGM battery?
A premium LN4-size AGM battery designed for vehicles with advanced start-stop systems and higher electrical demand. It offers strong charge acceptance, stable voltage, and long cycle durability for modern driving.
Is the A6 compatible with my vehicle?
Use the A6 if your vehicle specifies an LN4 AGM with Positive Right terminals. Confirm key specs against OE: 12V, 80Ah, 879 CCA, 315 × 175 × 190 mm, SAE top posts.
What are the A6’s main specifications?
12V, 80Ah capacity, 879 CCA, LN4 case (315 × 175 × 190 mm), Positive Right terminals, approx. 23.0 kg, maintenance-free AGM, 36-month warranty (private use).
Why choose AGM over conventional or EFB batteries here?
AGM supports higher charge acceptance, better vibration resistance, sealed spill-proof construction, and longer cycle life—ideal for start-stop systems and vehicles with heavy electronics. If your car came with AGM, replace like-for-like.
Does the A6 need coding or battery registration after install?
Many late-model vehicles require battery registration/coding so the charging system recognises the new battery. Use a suitable scan tool or have a technician perform this step.
What charger should I use off-vehicle with the A6 AGM?
Use a 12V smart charger with a dedicated AGM mode. A current around 8–12A (roughly 10–15% of Ah) is typical. Avoid constant high-amp “boost” charges not intended for AGM.
Is the A6 maintenance-free and spill-proof?
Yes. The sealed AGM design is maintenance-free, leak-resistant and highly vibration-resistant for dependable service life in tough conditions.
How does the A6 perform in cold climates and stop-go traffic?
With 879 CCA and strong charge acceptance, it delivers confident cold starts and maintains stable voltage during frequent restarts and short urban trips.
Any installation tips for best performance and battery life?
Confirm LN4 size and Positive Right layout, clean and tighten clamps, secure the battery firmly, and check alternator charging voltage. After install, fully charge and, if required, perform battery registration.
How should I store the A6 if the vehicle isn’t used often?
Keep it fully charged in a cool, dry place or use an AGM-compatible maintainer. Recharge if open-circuit voltage drops below about 12.5V.
