It comes with a standard flooded battery. You can usually step up to an AGM in the same Group 94R for longer life, but it isn't required. The 730-850 CCA rating is on the higher end, typical of larger engines and trucks, and it matters most for reliable cold-weather starts. Group 94R defines the case size and terminal layout (reversed-terminal layout (r)), so any reputable Group 94R battery will fit the tray and connect correctly. Some trims or engines use Group 49 instead, so always confirm against the label on your current battery.

Where to buy a Group 94R battery

A car battery is heavy and expensive to ship, so buying in person (Walmart, Costco, or a local auto-parts store) often beats online once you count free installation and the core-charge refund on your old battery. To compare prices and reviews online:
