The NEW VARTA dynamic TrioTraining Notes July 2007
VARTA.
The power behind the biggest brands.
The Power of the OEM‘s = Nr. 1 in the Aftermarket
The Varta Brand is well known in the market for high quality, innovative products First choice for the vehicle manufacturers is the best argument for the replacment
market: VARTA every time High quality and perfect market coverage guarantee satisfied customers and smooth
sales development without time wasted looking after warranty issues
Increased Demand & Requirements
More vehicles are now on the road. The number of electrical consumers is growing – on new vehicles, but also on older
vehicles too (sat-nav, sound systems etc.). The number of journeys is increasing (also the length of journey is decreasing) The proportion of diesel vehicles on the road with their higher cold start requirements
is increasing. Starting and driving conditions have become more electrically demanding. More batteries – as well as higher performance batteries – are now required.
Tailormade power for every car
Since virtually all car makers put VARTA batteries into their new cars, the VARTA brand is extremely respected and trustworthy.
When your customer comes to you for a replacement battery, make sure you recommend the original power behind.
What power for which vehicle?
The choice of vehicles today is immense. Which battery is required is often difficult for the end consumer to work out.
At the time of replacement, the customer is presented with an offering of unknown origin and quality, but also a choice that isnt transparent.
VARTA as brand name is the market leader. VARTA allows the Aftermarket consumer to place their trust completely on the power of the brand. Use the VARTA catalogue to identify which battery options are available, and sell up if possible. The
battery recommended furthest right will generally be the most economical option for the customer - but be sure to sell up if extra electrical equipment has been fitted, and check the OE battery coming off the vehicle.
Which line for which vehicle group?
The 3 lines are segmented according to vehicle age, cranking power requirement and amount of electrical consumers fitted to vehicle
The 3 lines are also separated on a pricing perspective
But also older vehicles, with many electrical / electronic consumers can be served by the upper segments.
The solution for every car:
The VARTA dynamic Trio
The new VARTA dynamic Trio
VARTA has now provided segmentation into 3 clear lines: SILVER – BLUE – BLACK. The 3 segments have been split down according to vehicle type / power requirements. Clear allocation and product recommendations ease the choices at replacement. You are now able to quickly offer the customer the correct battery for their application
with the dynamic Trio. Significant improvements in design and inner construction on all 3 lines.
Attractive Design
Improved design and colour features separate Varta from the black case uniformity of the battery market
all 3 lines in the same silver case But with optical differences through lid colours SILVER
– BLUE – BLACK
Handle and Terminal Covers
Ergonomic design of the wide carry handle enables problem free handling
comfortable, plastic handle – makes carrying easy
integrated terminal covers Vent plugs integrated into the terminal covers
Lid Construction with improved Safety Functions
patented labyrinth double lid for added safety Success in the ‚Roll Over‘ test:
No dangerous leakage of acid Double flame arrestors – minimise the risk of explosion Suitable for use in internal compartment (with venting)
Case incl Hold Downs

Optimised Construction with Silver Alloy
Grid Geometry
The positive grid contains silver – this optimises the electrical flow
The unique cast grid minimises grid growth and corrosion – this increases lifetime
The negative grid is expanded – this aids resistance to high temperatures

Calcium-Silver Alloy
Water loss is reduced to a value that is difficult to measure (1g/Ah) – this value lies well below the EN and OE specifications
This results in substanstially increased lifespan
Since topping up is no longer required, the VARTA dynamic TRIO range of batteries are absolutely maintenance-free. Fit it and forget it!
