## Toyota Camry battery: common questions

### What size battery does a Toyota Camry take?

BCI group LN2 (DIN H5), rated at 356 cold cranking amps from the factory. Group size is a physical dimension and terminal-position standard, so a battery from a different group may not clamp down or may put the terminals on the wrong side.

### How many CCA does a Toyota Camry need?

At least 356 CCA. Going higher is harmless and helps in cold climates; going lower is how a vehicle that started fine in October stops starting in January.

### Does the Toyota Camry need an AGM battery?

Yes. This vehicle requires AGM, not flooded. A flooded battery in a start-stop system is cycled far harder than it is designed for and fails early.

### Where is the battery on a Toyota Camry?

Trunk, behind side trim panel (jump posts under the hood).

### Does a Toyota Camry need the battery registered after replacement?

12V auxiliary battery only, separate from the high-voltage hybrid pack. Owner's manual spec: LN2 case, ≥64 Ah (20-hr), ≥356 CCA. Use a vented AGM/EFB rated for in-trunk mounting; Toyota recommends dealer replacement. All 2025 Camrys are hybrids, so there is no separate gas-model battery.
