What is the battery specification of the Trumpchi GS4?
3 Answers
The battery specification of the Trumpchi GS4 is 6QW60 (475)L, which uses a Varta brand battery with a rated voltage of 12V and a rated capacity of 60AH. Generally, the service life of an automotive battery is 2 to 3 years, while the original battery of a new car can last more than 3 years. After replacing the battery, the new battery may have insufficient charge, including the original battery on a brand-new car, which may not be fully charged to 100%. 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 body dimensions of the Trumpchi GS4 are 4525mm in length, 1852mm in width, and 1685mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2640mm.
When I first started driving the Trumpchi GS4, I specifically researched the battery. My model uses a 12V 60Ah capacity specification with a cold cranking current of 550A. However, I should remind you that the exact parameters depend on the model year. For example, the 2022 automatic transmission high-end version was upgraded to a 70Ah EFB start-stop battery. When choosing a battery, don’t just look at the capacity—the terminal position and dimensions must also match the original mounting location, or it won’t fit. Last year when I replaced my battery, I measured the exact dimensions at 242×175×190mm and opted for a Varta battery of the same size. It’s been working well for almost a year and a half. I recommend keeping an eye on the battery’s condition, charging it promptly when it’s low, and turning off electrical devices when parked. This way, it can last over three years.
I'm quite familiar with the circuit design of Trumpchi models. The mainstream original battery for the GS4 is a 12V 60Ah specification, with a cold cranking amperage (CCA) of around 550-600A. Interestingly, there are differences between the old and new models. For example, models with auto start-stop must use EFB or AGM batteries, which are more expensive than regular ones but have a longer lifespan. The most accurate way to check your car's battery is to open the hood and look at the battery label, which displays the model and parameters. If the battery is dead and needs replacement, never settle for a regular battery—the start-stop function will quickly ruin it. I recommend choosing a battery with a CCA value of 600A or higher for smoother winter starts.
