What type of battery does a Subaru have?

Subaru Battery Type
Subaru vehicles are equipped with maintenance-free batteries. These batteries are sealed units filled with an electrolyte solution during production, which eliminates the need for checking water levels. Maintenance-free batteries can be mounted in different positions and offer steady amounts of energy at lower voltages for longer durations. They are known to last longer than standard lead-acid batteries.
The most common type of battery used in Subaru vehicles, including the Subaru Forester, is a group 35 battery. Group 35 batteries provide the necessary power to turn over the engine and have a certain amount of reserve power. They are available in both lead-acid and AGM (Absorbent Glass Mat) types. AGM batteries are recommended if your current battery has had some dead issues or if you use high-performance accessories in your Subaru.
If you are in need of a new battery for your Subaru, you can find a wide range of battery options at various retailers, such as AutoZone and Batteries Plus. It is important to choose a reliable battery to ensure your vehicle runs smoothly.
Please note that it is always recommended to consult your vehicle’s owner’s manual or contact a Subaru dealership for specific battery recommendations for your Subaru model.
