Manufacturers' Choice
Car Manufacturers Choose the Best for Their Cars
Car manufacturers choose components that are the best fit for their vehicles' quality. There are two other things car manufacturers specifically look for when deciding on a battery. One is performance, the other is a very low fail rate. These factors are the reason why VARTA is the No. 1 battery supplier for the automotive industry.
The No. 1 Battery Supplier for the Automotive Industry
VARTA is part of 18 newly manufactured vehicles with start-stop technology. It is equipped with AGM and EFB start-stop VARTA batteries. This is because VARTA batteries stand for superior quality. The OE logo stands for "original spare part". This means that exactly a VARTA battery is installed as it rolled off the assembly line as original equipment.
OE Quality Certificates and Processes
VARTA has put in place more than 160 process, product parameters and vehicles that are continuously inspected and tested with different batteries. This makes us the No. 1 battery supplier for the automotive industry.

The Importance of Original Spare Parts
When you replace a battery with a VARTA battery, you can rest assured it was originally produced to run in a newly manufactured car. That's what the OE logo stands for. What does this mean? Only the best batteries are chosen and tested by car manufacturers. The battery is purpose-built for the highest performance – thanks to the patented PowerFrame® grid technology. Only OE (original equipment) provides such premium processes.
The World's Largest AGM Plant
The world's largest production facility for AGM (Absorbent Glass Mat) batteries is in Zwickau, Germany. A couple of million AGM batteries are manufactured in this state-of-the-art plant every year. As the need for start-stop batteries continues to rise significantly in the next few years, VARTA's newly expanded capacity will serve that demand.
The VARTA Vehicle Laboratory
With the vehicle laboratory in Hanover is a group of researchers who run diverse tests and studies to adapt technologies to customer needs. Our test team deals with vehicle power and battery replacement studies, vehicle performance tests and studies on battery condition. Through these processes, our research team refines and test equipment to continuously seek to achieve the highest product quality and performance.
