Key takeaways

  • Battery: BCI Group 27F, 600-750 CCA, AGM.
  • Replace with the same Group 27F (some versions use Group 49 - match the one you are removing).
  • In cold weather, choose a battery at or above 750 CCA.
  • This car needs an AGM battery - a standard flooded battery is not a valid replacement.

The EPA lists automatic engine start-stop on every 2025 Infiniti QX80 configuration. Start-stop restarts the engine many times per drive, which is why these cars take an AGM or EFB battery - replace like with like. Start-stop by engine →

This vehicle ships with an AGM battery from the factory, which is common on models with engine stop-start. Replace it with an AGM of the same group, not a standard flooded battery, or you risk shorter life and dashboard warnings. A 600-750 CCA rating is typical for this class. Matching or slightly exceeding the OEM figure is fine; going below it risks hard starts in winter. Group 27F defines the case size and terminal layout (standard-terminal layout), so any reputable Group 27F 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.

The right battery for your 2025 Infiniti QX80

Match the group size (Group 27F) and aim for at least 600 CCA - more in cold climates. This car needs an AGM battery from the factory - do not fit a standard flooded battery. A battery is heavy to ship, so buying in person can win once you count free install and the core-charge refund - but to compare prices and reviews:

Jump starter and charger for the 2025 Infiniti QX80

Of the engines offered on the 2025 Infiniti QX80, the 3.5L gas needs the biggest jump starter. NOCO rates its Boost jump starters by engine size, and the smallest one rated for that engine is the GB20 (500 amps peak, gas engines up to 4.0L). Any jump starter whose maker rates it for a 3.5L gas engine or larger will do. If you live somewhere cold, the next size up gives you more margin.

To keep the battery topped up while the car sits, a 1-amp smart maintainer is enough for any car battery. To recharge one that has gone flat, use a charger rated for at least 100 Ah, such as a 5-amp unit. This car uses an AGM battery, so pick a charger with an AGM mode.

What does a 2025 Infiniti QX80 battery cost?

Group 27F AGM battery, 2025 Infiniti QX80
Typical price$125-320
Typical service life4-7 years
Cost per year~$18-80
Core charge~$22 (refundable)

Expect roughly $125-320 for an AGM battery in Group 27F, which is what this car takes. Over a typical 4-to-7-year service life that works out to about $18-80 a year. A cheaper flooded battery is not a valid substitute here, whatever the shelf price tempts you into: the charging system is calibrated for AGM and will cycle a flooded battery in a way it is not built to survive.

Infiniti is genuinely mixed on this: 37% of the 2015-and-newer Infiniti vehicles we hold specs for take AGM and the rest do not, so it varies by model year and even by trim. This is exactly the kind of car worth looking up rather than assuming.

This car needs the battery registered

This car came with an AGM battery, which usually means a smart charging system. Registration is most strictly required on European makes, but plenty of stop-start vehicles from other brands still want a battery reset or relearn after a replacement. Worth two minutes checking before you fit one.

How battery registration works - what it does, and how to have it done.

What Group 27F means

A BCI group number describes the battery's physical size and terminal layout, not its power. It is what guarantees the battery drops into the tray and the cables reach the right posts. A Group 27F case measures roughly 318 × 173 × 227 mm. Standard-terminal layout.

Group 27F is one of the less common sizes, at 1% of the vehicles we hold specs for. It is still a catalogued BCI size rather than anything exotic, but a smaller store may need to order it, so it is worth calling ahead.

Some versions of this model year use Group 49 instead - a different engine, the hybrid or an option package can change the battery. The groups can be different case sizes, so match the group printed on the battery you are removing, and check the hold-down clamp engages before you drive off - a battery that shifts is a battery that fails early.

How many cold cranking amps?

Aim for 600 CCA at minimum. Cold cranking amps measure how much current the battery can deliver at 0°F, which is the one moment a battery is really tested. The 600-750 range reflects the different batteries fitted across this vehicle's trims and options. Going above the OEM rating is safe and does no harm - the starter draws what it needs and no more, so a higher-CCA battery is not "too strong" for the car. It is worth paying for if you park outside in a cold climate, and largely wasted money if you do not. Going below 600 is the one thing to avoid, because that is where hard winter starts come from.

How long it should last

An AGM battery typically lasts 4 to 7 years. Heat is what kills batteries, not cold - cold just exposes one that was already failing, which is why so many die on the first freezing morning after a hot summer. Short trips that never fully recharge it shorten its life too. Once this battery passes its third year, get it tested annually rather than waiting to be stranded.

The warning signs are worth knowing because they are easy to miss: cranking that sounds slower than it used to, headlights that dim at idle and brighten when you rev, or a car that starts fine every day until the first cold morning and then does not. A battery rarely warns you twice.
