Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between Group 24 and 24F?
Both are similar physical dimensions, but Group 24F has front-facing terminals while Group 24 has terminals on top/rear. Check your current battery’s terminal location before ordering.
What CCA do I need for a Canadian winter?
For most mid-size vehicles, 650-800 CCA is sufficient. This Group 24F option provides 725 CCA, suitable for most Toyota, Nissan, and Lexus applications in Canada.
Can I substitute Group 35 if 24F isn’t available?
Group 35 is similar but slightly smaller — it may fit with a tray spacer, but terminal position may differ. Call us to confirm before substituting.
