BCI battery group
Group 95R battery size
A BCI group 95R battery is at most 394 mm long, 175 mm wide and 190 mm tall (15.51 × 6.89 × 7.48 in), according to the Battery Council International group chart.
| Maximum size | 394 × 175 × 190 mm |
|---|---|
| In inches | 15.51 × 6.89 × 7.48 |
| Terminal types | A1 and A2 |
| Polarity | Reversed (R): positive terminal on the opposite side from the base group |
| Cold cranking amps (OE range) | 800–950 A |
| DIN / EN equivalent | H9 / LN6 (BCI best fit) |
Cars whose manuals point to group 95R
None of the owner's manuals this site has read so far print group 95R. Most Japanese and Korean makers print a case size or capacity instead of a BCI group, so the battery label on the car is the better guide.
Measuring for a group 95R
To take a group 95R, the tray needs at least 394 mm (15.51 in) of length and 175 mm (6.89 in) of width inside the hold-down, and 190 mm (7.48 in) of height below the hood or any bracket, with room left for the cable ends. These are BCI maximums: a real group 95R battery can be a few millimetres smaller, never larger. Original-equipment batteries in this group were rated from 800 to 950 cold cranking amps, so the right rating depends on the car; match or exceed the rating on the battery you are replacing.

Positive numbers mean the other group is bigger than group 95R. A bigger case only fits if your tray and hold-down have that much spare room; measure inside the hold-down frame, not the old battery.
Fitting a group 95R
The group sets the case size, terminal position and hold-down. A battery from another group can only replace it when the length, width and height all fit the tray and the terminals land on the same sides. No other passenger-car group in the BCI chart has exactly the same case size and polarity. Use the tray fit checker to list every group that fits a measured space.
