Best Battery for Subaru Outback

Couldn’t believe it lasted that long.

3yrs in on my 22 XT ,still good

Still going strong on OEM battery after 3yrs

I bought a Duralast Platinum H5 AGM. I have read several instances of Subaru of America reimbursement.

Our car straight up died on the road twice, to the point it couldn't be jumped, with my kids in the back seat. Subaru eventually gave us an upgraded battery.

Ended up finding a red top in the back of the store at Advanced (34R with 800CCA). If you go with Optima know that it takes some modification with the wiring. I needed to remove a cable tie and relocate one of the positive leads. Outback started right up and is running great.

I'm still running on the original battery, which does surprisingly well until subzero temps set in, and then the poor thing just cries a lot and breaks my heart, so I jump it with my Noco and things are fine.

I bought a brand new '24 Outback Wilderness in August of 2023 and had to replace the battery within 18 months.

My battery died on my ‘15 Outback within a year of my buying the car brand new off the lot. I noticed some issues with the lift gate and the car was having problems starting at times. It was a bad cell in the battery so it needed to be replaced.

My 2020 Outback OEM battery only lasted 3-ish years.
