Group 78 battery: equivalents & cars that use it
A BCI Group 78 battery measures 260×179×186 mm (L×W×H). The closest equivalents that fit the same tray are Group 59 - always confirm terminal side and CCA before swapping.
Group 78 equivalent sizes
These BCI groups share a near-identical case, so they may fit the same battery tray. “Same terminals” means the +/- posts sit on the same side; reversed terminals (R groups) can leave your cables short.
| Group | Case (mm) | Terminals |
|---|---|---|
| Group 59 | 255×176×190 | same |
