2012 Volkswagen GLI Battery Price

Understanding battery price goes beyond the sticker. For your 2012 Volkswagen GLI, the apparent cost of a battery is only part of the value equation.

Nalley Volkswagen of Alpharetta uses industry-standard testing equipment to recommend the ideal chemistry and capacity for your driving needs, ensuring balanced charging and accurate battery state reporting to the vehicle’s electronic systems. Choosing the wrong type can lead to underperformance, shortened life, or even damage to the vehicle’s charging system. Because warranty and future repair eligibility depend on certified service, installing the correct type at our dealership protects coverage and provides immediate and ongoing savings by reducing the chance of premature failure and additional diagnostic work.
