The real differences between the TA601 and the closest Tudor models: | Model | Capacity | Cold cranking (EN) | Dimensions (mm) | Positive | Weight | |---|---|---|---|---|---| | Tudor TA601 (this one) | 60 Ah | 600 A | 242 × 175 × 190 | left | 15 kg | | Tudor TB621 | 62 Ah | 540 A | 242 × 175 × 190 | left | 14.4 kg | | Tudor TB608 | 60 Ah | 640 A | 230 × 180 × 186 | left | 14.2 kg | - Tudor TB621: 2 Ah more, 60 A less cranking power, the same L2 case. - Tudor TB608: the same capacity, 40 A more cranking power, a different case (230 × 180 × 186 mm). ## Equivalents and alternatives to the Tudor TA601 Batteries that fit the TA601's tray with the same polarity; besides other conventional batteries, an EFB or AGM of this size is a valid upgrade for the TA601. | Model | Technology | Capacity | Cold cranking (EN) | Dimensions (mm) | |---|---|---|---|---| | Exide EA601 | Lead-acid | 60 Ah | 600 A | 242 × 175 × 190 | | Varta D43 | Lead-acid | 60 Ah | 540 A | 242 × 175 × 190 | | Kronobat PB-60.1 | Lead-acid | 60 Ah | 540 A | 242 × 175 × 190 | | Varta D39 | Lead-acid | 63 Ah | 610 A | 242 × 175 × 190 | | Kronobat MS-63.1 | Lead-acid | 63 Ah | 610 A | 242 × 175 × 190 | | Exide EB621 | Lead-acid | 62 Ah | 540 A | 242 × 175 × 190 | ## Lead-acid technology in the TA601 Inside, the TA601 is classic lead-acid: liquid electrolyte and lead plates. If the TA601 is left discharged for weeks it sulphates: a maintenance charger prevents this. ## Check this before ordering the Tudor TA601 - If your car has Start-Stop, the TA601 is not the right one: it needs an EFB or an AGM. - Check the EN amps on your battery: if it says 600 A or less, the TA601 covers your engine. - Your current battery should say about 60 Ah; a little more is also fine. - Polarity of the TA601: positive terminal on the left (if yours has it on the other side, the cables will not reach). - Length, width and height of the TA601: 242 × 175 × 190 mm (European case size L2). ## Frequently asked questions about the Tudor TA601 ### TA601 or TB621: which one suits me? Compared with the TA601, the Tudor TB621 has 2 Ah more and 60 A less cranking power. The TA601 cranks harder; the TB621 is only a good option if your original battery says 540 A or less. Both measure 242 × 175 × 190 mm, so they fit the same tray. ### Can the Tudor TA601 be used in a car with Start-Stop? No. The TA601 is a lead-acid battery for cars without automatic engine stop; Start-Stop needs an EFB or an AGM. ### How much does the Tudor TA601 weigh? 15 kg, with 60 Ah of capacity. For reference, the Tudor TB621 (62 Ah) weighs 14.4 kg. ### Which battery is equivalent to the Tudor TA601? With the same dimensions, polarity and similar capacity you have the Exide EA601, Varta D43 and Kronobat PB-60.1. As the TA601 is a conventional battery, an EFB or AGM of the same size also works. ### What case size is the Tudor TA601? Case size L2: 242 × 175 × 190 mm. The TA601 fits any standard L2 battery tray such as the Exide EA601. ### Which side is the positive terminal on the Tudor TA601? On the TA601, the positive terminal is on the left with the terminals facing you: compare it with your current battery, because with reversed polarity the cables will not reach. ### Which charger does the Tudor TA601 need? An automatic lead-acid charger with cut-off or maintenance mode, rated at 10 to 20% of its capacity in amps. If it is a vented type, check the electrolyte level and top up only with distilled water. ## Other options if you are unsure about the TA601 - [Other car batteries](https://bateriasonline.es/en/car-batteries) - [More Tudor models](https://bateriasonline.es/en/tudor-batteries) - [Exide EA601](https://bateriasonline.es/en/exide-ea601) · 60 Ah, 600 A, 242×175×190 mm - [Varta D43](https://bateriasonline.es/en/varta-d43) · 60 Ah, 540 A, 242×175×190 mm --- *bateriasonline.es — Batteries and accessories · 2026-11-10*
