Classic and vintage vehicles present distinct electrical demands – ageing wiring looms, lower alternator output, and prolonged storage periods all require a battery engineered specifically for the application rather than adapted from a modern fitment. The Lucas LC049 Classic Car Battery addresses these requirements directly, delivering dependable 12V power in a specification tailored to the heritage vehicle market.
Lucas Automotive builds its battery range to exacting standards, applying manufacturing discipline developed across decades of supplying the automotive aftermarket. The LC049 is a standard flooded lead-acid battery rated at 45Ah capacity (C20) and 300A Cold Cranking Amps (EN), providing a reliable reserve for vehicles with modest but consistent electrical loads and infrequent seasonal use.
The LC049 fits a 218mm × 133mm – 228mm (L × W × H) envelope within a Group E02 case, secured via a B01 hold-down arrangement. Terminal layout follows Type 1 configuration with positive polarity designation 1. The battery cross-references to the widely used 049H code, confirming compatibility across a broad range of classic car applications. It is not suitable for start-stop vehicles.
The LC049 is part of the Lucas Classic Car battery range. Related variants available from PartsForMachines include LC038, LC027, LC037, and LC048, covering alternative capacities and case sizes within the same product family.
This battery is supplied with a 3-year warranty, reflecting Lucas Automotive's commitment to consistent service life and reliable cranking performance under everyday driving conditions.
