ACDelco Batteries: The Only Batteries Backed by GM

The size of batteries and location of terminals varies to fit different makes and models of vehicles. Your vehicle’s battery should also have a label on it that shows the battery’s BCI Group Size, or you can consult your Vehicle Owner’s Manual. If you are looking for part numbers or the full line up of batteries, please reference the Battery Catalog. 

Flooded batteries, also known as wet cell batteries, contain and use a liquid electrolyte and lead plates to generate electricity. The benefits of flooded batteries include:

• Easy maintenance and a long lifespan 
• Cost effective compared to other types of modern batteries 
• Decades of proven field use and improvements 
  

Absorbed glass mat batteries, or AGM batteries, pack the lead plates used in most modern batteries with fiberglass mats that absorb the unit’s electrolyte solution. The benefits of AGM batteries include: 

• Maintenance-free design makes them vibration resistant and spill-proof
• Up to twice the life of conventional batteries
• More power and CCA than conventional batteries  

ACDelco also offers a line of Premium AGM Batteries intended for modern vehicles that promote starting power for cold weather, faster charging speeds and higher capacity for electrical demand, and meets the electrical demands for Start Stop vehicles. 

To find a replacement car battery near you, use our Parts Locator  and click “Select Parts” to find locations near you selling batteries. You can also visit our trusted retailers who carry ACDelco Batteries to purchase or order a new battery. 

You can visit your local Certified Service  location for assistance with installing a new car battery. Additionally, many auto parts retailers offer to install new car batteries with purchase.

Onstar^® services can help you jumpstart a dead battery to get you back on the road, but do not replace or install new batteries. If you use a different roadside assistance provider, consult your plan or contact them for more information on battery replacement and installation.

When you purchase your new battery, most places that sell automotive batteries will exchange the battery for a core charge. If you need to dispose of a battery and not exchanging for a new battery, many retailers that sell batteries will dispose of old batteries for you. If this is not an option, contact your local city or municipality to learn how to dispose of the battery as hazardous waste.
