What size car battery do i need? Car battery sizes indicate the actual physical size of a car battery (height, width, and length) and their polarity (where the positive and negative terminals are located on the battery). Batteries are given standard group sizes to make things easier for you, the everyday driver, as well as vehicle manufacturers. While you could grab a ruler and attempt to measure the exact width and height of your current car battery, pop the hood and simply look for "Group Size" printed on the label of the battery or check your owner's manual. Getting a new car battery, and the right sized car battery, doesn't have to include any mathematical equations!
