What battery does the Trumpchi GS4 use?
2 Answers
Trumpchi GS4 uses a Varta brand battery, model number 6-QW-60(475)-L, with a rated voltage of 12V and a rated capacity of 60AH. Relevant information is as follows: 1. Generally, the service life of an automotive battery is 2-3 years, and the original battery of a new car can last more than 3 years. If the battery has been in use for nearly two years, its service life may have expired. At this time, it should be checked more frequently, inspected in advance, and any issues should be resolved or replaced early to avoid sudden "failure" of the battery during use, which could cause losses. 2. After replacing the battery, the new battery may have insufficient charge, including the original battery on a brand-new car, which may not be 100% charged. Therefore, after replacing the battery or purchasing a new car, it is necessary to let the engine run for a longer time to ensure the battery is fully charged.
The GAC GS4 is typically equipped with a 12-volt lead-acid battery from the factory, with capacities ranging between 55 to 65Ah, varying slightly depending on the specific model year. A 60Ah battery is commonly used. During my usage, I noticed this battery is responsible for engine starting and powering electrical components. The factory usually selects brands like Varta or Fengfan, with standard models such as LN2. If the battery ages, the car may fail to start, and the battery warning light may illuminate. It's advisable to regularly check the voltage with a multimeter, maintaining it above 12.6 volts under normal conditions. Inspection is recommended around every three years, as extreme hot or cold climates can shorten its lifespan. When replacing it yourself, ensure safety by avoiding contact with the positive and negative terminals. Always choose a battery matching the factory specifications, and maintenance-free types are more convenient.
