What is the battery model for the Trumpchi GS7?

The battery model for the Trumpchi GS7 is 6-QW-60(475)-L. Below is a detailed introduction to the Trumpchi GS7: 1. On January 9, 2017, the Trumpchi GS7 made its global debut at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit. It was officially launched on August 26, 2017. 2. The dimensions of the Trumpchi GS7 are 4730/1910/1770mm (length/width/height), with a wheelbase of 2720mm. Compared to the Trumpchi GS8, the GS7 is 80mm shorter in length and wheelbase. 3. It is equipped with two turbocharged engines of different displacements: a 2.0T and a 1.8T. The transmission options include a 6-speed automatic and a 6-speed manual. The automatic transmission models are equipped with a driving mode selection system, with the switch button located to the left front of the gear lever. There are four driving modes available: D (Normal), E (Economy), M (Manual), and W (Winter).
Over the years, I've done quite a bit of research on car batteries. The GS7 typically uses a 12V 60Ah AGM battery, such as common brands like Varta's 55D23 model or Yuasa's corresponding specifications, though specifics may vary slightly depending on the vehicle's production year—earlier models might have minor differences. AGM stands for Absorbent Glass Mat, specifically designed for start-stop systems, and the cold cranking amps (CCA) should be at least 500 to ensure reliable performance. Why is matching important? An incompatible battery can lead to insufficient power supply—dim lights, slow starts, or even damage to the electronic control unit. Owners should check the label near the front passenger door or the manual to confirm the correct model and avoid unreliable second-hand options online, given that batteries typically last only 3–5 years. For maintenance, regularly test the voltage to prevent deep discharge, and when replacing, opt for reputable shops to avoid rework hassles.
Last time I helped a friend with his GS7 battery issue. The original battery was mostly a 60Ah model, and something like a 62Ah is also compatible. I suggested he check the label on top of the battery—sure enough, it showed the CCA value. In terms of battery maintenance, large temperature differences between summer and winter can easily lead to power loss, causing starting difficulties. Before replacing a battery myself, I always check the manufacturer's recommendations—using the wrong model is not only a waste of money but also dangerous. Regular car owners should try to get their batteries checked at a garage periodically. When the battery is low, the dashboard lights will dim as a warning. Remember to pull out the key when turning off the lights to extend battery life. A cost-saving tip is to buy a mid-range AGM battery brand—don’t go for cheap knockoffs.
