Frequently asked

How many CCA does a Group 65 battery need?

Group 65 vehicles in our data ship with 650-850 CCA (typically around 650). Match your car's original rating or go higher - aim for the top of that range in cold climates.

Is a Group 65 battery AGM or flooded?

Group 65 is used with standard flooded batteries. AGM is an optional upgrade for longer life in heat and heavy electrical loads, and is safe to fit.

What size is a Group 65 battery?

A BCI Group 65 case measures 306×192×192 mm (L×W×H). Any Group 65 battery uses that footprint, so it drops into the same tray.
