GS Yuasa, the renowned Japanese battery manufacturer known for their Yuasa and GS brands have unveiled their latest promotion aimed at reducing the stress associated with battery replacement.  From now until Blue Monday (20 January 2025), every qualifying purchase of GS or Yuasa batteries from participating GS Yuasa distributors in Ireland will include a free stress battery.

There are three up for grabs: a Yuasa YBX5096, Yuasa YBX9096 and GS AGM096, each a perfectly crafted 30% scale replica of the real deal, including full-colour labels, positive and negative terminals and integrated carrying handles. Whilst most likely to be thrown at colleagues in workshops and garages across the country, mechanics and vehicle technicians are encouraged to hold onto them – each acts as a ticket to exclusive competitions over the next 12 months.

From Amazon and Greggs vouchers, to Booking.com, there’s something for everyone, with each time-limited competition offering multiple chances to win. Simply sign up to the mailing list via the QR code on the stress battery to enter. Doing so will also mean that the person registering will be the first to know as each new competition goes live.

Gareth Robinson-Green, Marketing Manager at GS Yuasa Battery Sales UK Ltd. said, “We’re hugely excited to be launching our latest promotion, offering trade professionals a chance to win one of over 30 Amazon gift cards worth up to€300 just in time for the seasonal peak in vehicle battery failure.”

Gareth adds, “If there’s one thing the industry agrees on, it’s that battery replacement has become increasingly complex over recent years. Whether that’s due to multiple options for a single nameplate, or the increasing requirement to validate battery replacement, our latest promotion is just one example of how we’re providing the tools required to take the stress out of battery replacement.”

As the market leader, GS Yuasa already offers a variety of tools to make life easier for workshops and vehicle technicians. From OE-quality batteries covering 99.9% of the European vehicle parc to their powerful battery lookup tool featuring step-by-step fitting instructions, and their award-winning, free-to-use online training platform, GS Yuasa Academy.

Yuasa and GS batteries are highly regarded by mechanics and motorists alike. In fact, more GS Yuasa-made batteries are sold in the UK and Ireland than any other brand. To explore our market-leading ranges, click here.
