The Lucas Fusion EFB battery series is designed to meet the demands of modern vehicles equipped with start-stop systems and moderate energy recovery technologies. EFB, which stands for Enhanced Flooded Battery, represents a significant advancement over traditional lead-acid batteries. These batteries are engineered for improved cycling performance and superior charge acceptance, making them a reliable choice for urban drivers whose engines frequently shut off and restart during city traffic. The Fusion EFB range from Lucas combines robust construction with enhanced performance, ensuring long service life even under repetitive charge-discharge conditions.

The Lucas LE027 is a compact and efficient 12V EFB battery with a capacity of 60 Ah and a cold cranking amperage of 560 A, providing reliable starting power in all weather conditions. It is specifically designed for vehicles that incorporate start-stop technology, helping reduce fuel consumption and emissions. Thanks to its EFB design, the LE027 is better equipped to handle the frequent engine restarts and deeper cycling that come with start-stop systems, compared to standard flooded batteries.

This model features standard terminal layout type 0, with the positive post located on the right, which is consistent with most European vehicle setups. The battery also comes with standard terminal posts (type 1), ensuring compatibility with most modern European cars. Additionally, it uses the B13 mounting base, which is the most common form of bottom securing format in Europe, with a ledge running around the entire base of the battery, providing secure and stable fitment in most passenger vehicles.

The dimensions of 242 x 175 x 190 mm categorize the LE027 as a standard L2 battery, which is commonly used in European vehicles. This size ensures compatibility with a wide range of popular car models, including hatchbacks, compact sedans, and smaller SUVs. Despite being compact, the LE027 delivers strong cranking performance and consistent power supply for electrical components such as lighting, infotainment systems, and climate control.

It is important to highlight that this battery is designed for use in European-style applications, with standard height and width dimensions. It is not a high-profile battery like many Asian models, which tend to be taller and narrower. Thanks to its EFB technology, the LE027 is suitable for vehicles with energy recovery systems but should not be confused with AGM batteries, which are used in high-end start-stop systems with even higher energy demands and regenerative braking.

When compared with similar EFB batteries on the market, the Lucas LE027 holds its own. It matches the Bosch S4 EFB S4 E05 and Varta Blue Dynamic EFB D53 in both capacity and cranking power. While some models, like the Exide EL600 or Varta N60, offer higher cranking currents, the LE027 provides excellent performance at a competitive price point, making it an attractive option for cost-conscious drivers who still require the durability and reliability of EFB technology.

In summary, the Lucas Fusion EFB LE027 is a well-rounded battery solution for modern start-stop vehicles. With its durable construction, strong electrical output, and compatibility with common European mounting and terminal configurations, it delivers dependable performance for everyday driving and urban traffic conditions.
