Battery Size Group 35

Group Size 35 Battery: A Popular and Reliable Fit for Canadian Vehicles

The Group Size 35 battery is one of the most commonly used batteries in Canada. It strikes a balance between compact size, strong cranking power, and dependable all-season performance. Whether you’re driving in downtown Toronto or tackling cold starts in Calgary, this battery is made to handle the job.


Size, Specs, and Average Cost in Canada

Group 35 batteries are 12-volt and typically measure about 9.06 inches long, 6.88 inches wide, and 8.88 inches high. They're built to handle cold starts and daily commutes across Canada's varying climates. Here's what you can expect from a typical Group 35:

  • Cold Cranking Amps (CCA): 640 to 750

  • Cranking Amps (CA): 800 to 925

  • Amp-Hour (Ah): 50 to 60Ah


In Canada, a Group 35 battery generally costs between $160 and $240, depending on the brand and whether it’s a standard flooded battery or an AGM (absorbed glass mat) version. Most include a 2- to 3-year free replacement warranty, which is perfect for daily drivers and family vehicles.


Vehicles That Commonly Use Group 35 Batteries

Group 35 batteries are used in many Japanese and North American vehicles, including:

  • Toyota RAV4, Camry, and Corolla

  • Honda CR-V, Accord, and Civic

  • Subaru Forester and Outback

  • Mazda CX-5 and Mazda 6

  • Nissan Altima and Rogue

How to Tell If Your Group 35 Battery Needs Replacing

Here’s how you can quickly check if it’s time for a replacement:

  1. Slow cranking – The engine turns over more slowly than usual.

  2. Dashboard warning light – A battery or charging system light may appear.

  3. Voltage test – A healthy battery should show 12.6V or higher.

  4. Load test – While cranking, it should not dip below 9.6V.


If you don’t have a tester, MobileBattery offers roadside and at-home battery testing in many cities across Canada, including Vancouver, Edmonton, and Montreal.


Battery Lifespan in Canadian Conditions

The average lifespan of a Group Size 35 battery in Canada is 3 to 5 years. Factors like cold winters, short-distance driving, and heavy accessory use (like defrost, heated seats, and headlights) can shorten that lifespan.


Make sure to get your battery tested every year once it’s passed the 3-year mark. Check our Where We Service page to see if we operate in your city.
