Varta batteries in the Canary Islands: which one does your car need?
Varta is one of the most widely fitted original-equipment starter battery brands among European car makers. At Baterías Canarias we stock its ranges for cars, Start-Stop vehicles and heavy transport in Tenerife, so you don't have to wait for a shipment from mainland Spain.
Varta ranges we stock
| Range | Technology | Which vehicle |
|---|---|---|
| Dynamic SLI (replaces Blue Dynamic) | Maintenance-free lead-acid | Petrol and diesel cars without Start-Stop |
| Dynamic EFB | EFB (enhanced flooded battery) | Basic Start-Stop, no regenerative braking |
| Dynamic AGM | AGM (absorbent glass mat) | Advanced Start-Stop, regenerative braking, premium cars |
| Promotive | Conventional, EFB and AGM for heavy duty | Trucks, buses, machinery and commercial vehicles |
Freshly manufactured Varta batteries
We receive factory orders of the new range every month, so your Varta battery arrives freshly manufactured, with its full service life ahead. We don't sell old Blue Dynamic stock.
How to choose the right battery
- Same technology as the original: if your car came with AGM, it needs AGM. Fitting a conventional or EFB battery instead causes Start-Stop faults and a very short battery life.
- Size and polarity: the case must fit the tray and the positive terminal must sit on the same side as the original.
- Capacity (Ah) and cranking power (A): the same as or slightly higher than the original. More cranking amps will not harm your car.
- Not sure? Use our battery finder by vehicle or send us the make, model and year and we'll tell you the exact part number.
Why buy your Varta from Baterías Canarias
- Final price with IGIC included: no customs, no import paperwork and no surprises on delivery.
- Stock in Tenerife and 24-72 h delivery to all islands, with shipping included.

Varta battery FAQ
What happened to the Varta Blue Dynamic?
Varta has renewed its starter range: Blue Dynamic has been replaced by the new Dynamic SLI, with the same part numbers (B18, D24, E11, G7…) and the same dimensions. If your car had a Blue Dynamic, the Dynamic SLI with the same part number is its direct replacement.
Which Varta battery does a Start-Stop car need?
It depends on the battery the manufacturer fitted. Simpler Start-Stop systems use EFB, while cars with regenerative braking or lots of electronics use AGM. Never downgrade the technology: you can replace an EFB with an AGM, but not the other way round. See all our Start-Stop batteries.
Are the Varta G7 and G8 the same?
They have the same capacity (95 Ah), cranking power (830 A) and dimensions, but different polarity: the positive terminal is on the opposite side. Check which side the positive is on your current battery and choose the one that matches.
How long does a Varta battery last?
Normally between 4 and 6 years. Heat speeds up wear on any battery, so in the warmer parts of the Canary Islands, and in cars that only do short trips, it's worth checking it from the fourth year. If the car struggles to start in the morning, it's time to test it.
How much does a Varta battery cost in the Canary Islands?
Dynamic SLI car batteries start at around €90. Start-Stop EFB and AGM batteries range from roughly €140 to €300 depending on capacity, and truck batteries depend on size. All prices in our shop are final, with IGIC and shipping included.
Do you deliver Varta batteries to all islands?
Yes. We ship from Tenerife to Gran Canaria, Lanzarote, Fuerteventura, La Palma, La Gomera and El Hierro. If you're in Tenerife, you can also collect it in Tacoronte or La Guancha.
