Classic and vintage vehicle owners face a common challenge: sourcing a reliable lead-acid battery that fits period-correct battery trays without compromising on modern manufacturing quality. The Hella HC012 Classic Car Battery addresses this directly, delivering dependable starting performance in a compact, traditional form factor suited to older vehicle applications.
Hella engineers its battery range to the highest specification, applying contemporary production standards to conventional lead-acid chemistry. The HC012 is purpose-built for dependable performance in its intended application, providing consistent cold-cranking capability across a broad range of operating conditions without the complexity of absorbent glass mat or enhanced flooded plate technologies.
The HC012 operates at 12V with a 42Ah capacity (C20) and a cold cranking amperage of 360A (EN). Physical dimensions are 210mm × 175mm – 190mm (L × W × H) with a weight of 10.8kg. The battery is housed in an L01 case, uses a Type 0 terminal arrangement (positive terminal right), and is secured via B13 hold-down. It cross-references directly to the standard 012 battery type. This product is not suitable for start-stop vehicles.
The HC012 is available alongside companion variants HC027 and HC063, covering alternative capacities within the Hella Classic range to suit differing vehicle requirements.
This battery is supplied with a 3-year warranty, providing assurance of quality and long-term reliability.
