ACDelco Absorbed Glass Mat (AGM) Battery
The ACDelco AGM range represents the very best in advanced battery technology for the most highly developed luxury cars and most advanced fuel-saving technology, including Stop/Start and regenerative braking.
AGM Plate separators reduce internal resistance, providing significant improvement in all performance criteria, including increased cycling ability, faster recharge acceptance and improved cranking power in Partial-State-Of-Charge (PSOC).
The AGM Range is ideal for highly-advanced stop-start vehicles, high-end luxury vehicles that have higher electrical accessory loads or performance vehicles that require a higher CCA starting battery with improved cyclic ability.
Battery Benefits
- ACDelco Full Frame positive & negative charges
- 100% Maintenance-Free
- Spill & leak-resistance
- Highest corrosion-resistance
- Highest Cold Cranking Amps (CCA) for Stop/Start Applications
- Pressurised internally for vibration resistance
- Mandatory replacement for cars fitted with AGM batteries as original fit
- Ability to be retro fitted as a "higher performance" option in high load applications
Product Description
ACDelco Professional Automotive AGM Batteries have high cycling capabilities, are remarkably charge-receptive, and are necessary for ‘start/stop’ vehicle applications. The Absorbed Glass Mat design is 100% leak and spill proof because the Electrolyte is permanently held in the glass mat separator instead of free flowing within each cell. Oxygen recombination reduces water loss and reassures maintenance-free performance. ACDelco Professional Automotive AGM Batteries have longer life expectancy in traditional vehicle applications, due to a maintained pressure on the plates which significantly reduces the amount of active mass lost from the grid. ACDelco Professional Automotive AGM Batteries also have a 36 month Free Replacement Period. PROPOSITION 65 WARNING: Battery posts, terminals and related accessories contain lead and lead compounds, chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects and other reproductive harm. Batteries also contain other chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer. Wash hands after handling.•
MAINTENANCE TIPS:
Check the auto battery as part of regular vehicle maintenance.
Keep auto battery terminals clean and free of corrosion. To remove corrosion from terminals use a terminal brush.
Check the alternator and make sure that it is not charging too high or low – if the alternator is not charging properly it will cause the battery to not charge correctly and cause deterioration.
Avoid exposing the auto battery to extreme heat whenever possible.Turn off other electrical accessories (stereos, internal lights, etc.) as soon as they are no longer required to save electrical energy.

Update 10/2/17: Still going strong at 2-1/2 years in service and zero maintenance. Chances are that ACDelco Pro AGM will be my new battery of choice, in spite of the higher price than conventional batteries. Well worth it to me; it appears that longevity will more than offset the price differential. And the less I have to extract a dead battery from my engine compartment, the happier I am.
Update 9/7/2018: Still performing as new, 41 months in. It's a keeper.
Update 2/27/19: Made it through another winter with no issues. I'm so happy with this battery at almost 4 years in service.
Update 11/8/19: This battery is still happy and healthy at 4.5 years in service. Starts my 5.3L V8 Suburban reliably in recent subfreezing weather. I should also mention that my battery terminals are clean, shiny, and corrosion free; it looks like the battery terminal posts are very well sealed against acid and fumes leaking out and destroying cable ends and clamps.
Update 4/22/20: 5 years in service without so much as a hiccup. Still plenty of cranking power and zero issues. The extreme workload I mentioned earlier in this review has diminished somewhat these days. My Suburban is more of a daily driver now, although I still use the large inverter regularly for this and that. I replaced the factory alternator at about 105K miles in this vehicle; it was still charging just fine but the bearings were starting to get dry and a little noisy, and I didn't want it failing on me at an inopportune moment (like being many miles from home). But I digress...I'm super pleased with this AGM battery purchase 5 years later. It's been awesome, and shows no sign of giving up anytime soon.
Update 10/19/20: 5.5 years in service and still going strong.
Update 12/15/20: With subfreezing temps in the teens over the next couple of days here, I thought it best to do a quick health check of this battery considering it's age. I used a carbon pile load tester and it's putting out about 395 Amps at 50 degrees F, which is probably double what I need for cranking. I'll be keeping an eye on its freezing weather performance but I think it will do well.
Update 3/1/21: This ACDelco AGM battery made it through the recent Arctic blast with no issues; reliably started my Suburban at 5 degrees F. It's 2 months shy of 6 years old and still going strong.
Update 5/24/21: Just passed 6 years since installation, and still working great. Possibly the longest lasting automotive battery I've ever owned.
Update 11/5/21: 78 months / 6.5 years in service and still going strong. Temps in the 30s here this morning, and it's still cranking with power to spare.
Update 12/12/21: Subfreezing weather has arrived, and this battery is finally showing its age. Slower than normal cranking this morning at 26 degrees F. I conducted a load test and it's down to 340 amps max output. I've seen a lot of sudden failures from traditional flooded batteries over the years, and the failure curve on this one seems to be much more gradual. It's nice to have some warning of impending failure, instead of having to arrange a jump start. I'll run it for a while longer as it's still doing the job, but a battery purchase is in my near future. This has been a really great purchase and has lasted for more than double the 3 year warranty. I highly recommend it, and have zero complaints.
Final update 12/16/21: I ordered a replacement today. It's the same brand ACDelco Gold AGM, but I ordered the Group 94R/H7 instead of this Group 48/H6. It has much better cranking amp rating, reserve capacity, and AH rating, and it's $18 less at the time of writing this at $164. It's a little longer by about .6", but otherwise is almost identical and will drop right into my 2011 Suburban with room to spare using the factory battery holddown clamp. These 94Rs are factory equipment on the '14 and newer Chevrolet full size trucks and SUVs, and have the higher capacity to keep up with the ever increasing electrical loads as option sets continue to increase (I.E. higher power infotainment systems, auto pilot systems, heated seats and steering wheels, etc.). I hope it lasts as long as this one did, and I'm convinced that it's the absolute best deal on the market if you want a long lasting premium battery.
The Ford dealership was going to install the same stock battery (dumb), and the techs wasn't even aware that in the 2021 model they upgraded the stock battery anyway. Had to pull teeth to get someone to even pull up the model of the new battery, which finally was quoted at over $300 to purchase and install (with a 1 week lead time). Are you kidding me?
Just buy this battery, same 3 year warranty, same AGM ratings as the upgraded stock and without the MotorCraft upcharge. Install literally took me <20 min, even with my socket set being missing for most of that.
We'll see if it holds up - but so far (3 months in) it's been rock solid and literally every problem I've been having with this car has been fixed b/c this battery can actually keep the electronics in power.
Battery works great, my car has significant improvement in performance. If your car has start/stop system you need AGM battery. Lead-acid batteries might cause engine/transmission to work with issues.
Amazon description says origin country is USA but battery is made in China in 2021. I was expecting USA or Korea built but Chinese version also works well. After using about a month, battery was tested 746 CCA (760 CCA rated) and 97% health. Not sure if it degraded on the shelf or in the last month when I installed it in my car. I will test it in couple of months and will post an update.

Do not trust "Amazon Confirmed Fit" with car batteries. Ever.
The one I received (see picture) had a puncture next to the negative terminal, a hole exposing the inner contents of the battery. It was shipped with strong foam padding protecting all eight corners, and the shipping box was undamaged, so the damaged battery was packed and shipped this way.
Again, when you receive this battery brand new and undamaged, it is a quality battery that I highly recommend.
