What the Porsche 718 takes
As an SUV, the 718 carries a larger battery than a saloon, and the engine bay runs hot in traffic. Larger cases mean more capacity, but they also suffer more from long idling with the AC on.
Versions of the 718 from about 2015 onwards are more likely to have start-stop and a battery sensor, which means an EFB or AGM battery and sometimes registration after fitting.
Sizes are DIN, the same cases other German makes use. As a guide, a 911 usually carries an AGM of 70 to 80 Ah (H6 or H7), a Macan 80 to 95 Ah (H7 or H8), and the Cayenne and Panamera 95 to 105 Ah (H8 or H9), with the bigger figure on V8, diesel and heavily optioned cars. The registered capacity is stored in the car, so like replaces like. Before quoting, the technician asks for the model year or chassis number and checks the label on the fitted battery, including whether it is AGM or lithium.

Porsche fitting notes that apply to the 718
- A dead 911 will not release its front lid; the technician pulls out the emergency positive terminal in the footwell fuse box, feeds it from a booster and opens the lid that way.
- The new battery is registered through the scan tool with its capacity and type, so the energy management stops limiting comfort functions.
- On Cayennes with the battery under a front seat, the seat is moved on its motors before power is cut, so the order of work matters.
- Cars with a factory lithium 12V battery, and every Taycan, are tested on site but usually referred to the dealer for replacement.
Signs a Porsche 718 battery is on its way out
- A message on unlocking that electrical consumers have been switched off to protect the battery.
- Auto start-stop no longer shutting the engine down, usually weeks before any slow cranking.
- The clock or trip data resetting after the car has stood for a fortnight.

Porsche 718 battery: FAQs
What battery does a Porsche 718 take?
It depends on the model year and engine. The technician confirms the exact size and technology from the battery already fitted or from the chassis number, then fits the same specification. For the 718 we most often fit Varta, Bosch, Exide.
How long does it take to replace a Porsche 718 battery?
Fitting usually takes 15 to 30 minutes once the technician is at the car. Typical arrival in Al Taawun is 20 to 35 minutes, so most 718 owners are driving again within an hour of calling.
Can you replace a Porsche 718 battery in a basement car park?
Yes. Send the tower name, level and bay number. If the van cannot enter, the technician carries the battery and tools to the car.
Can you replace the 12V battery on a Taycan in Al Taawun?
We test it on site and can often get the car awake by supporting the 12V side. Many Taycans use a lithium 12V battery tied into the car's software, so replacement is usually referred to the Porsche dealer. You are told which case applies before any work starts.
How do you open the front lid of a 911 with a dead battery?
There is an emergency positive terminal in the fuse box in the driver's footwell. Feeding that from a booster, with the negative on the door striker, gives enough power to release the front lid. After that the battery is reached and replaced normally.
