The battery size for a Toyota RAV4 depends on the year it was manufactured as well as its trim level. Each RAV4 has a battery size of either H4, H5, 35, 24F, or 34R.

First released in 1996, the compact SUV model has gone through several iterations, trim levels, and battery sizes. The exact size of the battery in your RAV4 will vary depending on which year it was manufactured and what trim level it falls under.

How big is a Toyota RAV4 battery?

Car battery sizes are represented by two to three alphanumeric characters, such as T4 or 96R. These codes, comprised of letters and numbers, describe which Battery Council International (BCI) size group a given battery belongs to.

These size groups are differentiated by the physical dimensions and terminal locations of the batteries within them. Knowing which size group your car’s battery falls under lets you know what type of battery will be compatible with your vehicle.

Toyota RAV4s use one of five different battery sizes: H4, H5, 35, 24F, or 34R. Here’s a quick breakdown of what those group sizes mean:

Size group	Battery dimensions (length x width x height)
H4	8.15 inches x 6.90 inches x 7.48 inches
H5	9 9/16 inches x 6 15/16 inches x 7 ½ inches
35	9 1/16 inches x 6 ⅞ inches x 8 ⅞ inches
24F	10 ¾ inches x 6 13/16 inches x 9 inches
34R	10 ¼ inches x 6 13/16inches x 7 7/8inches

Depending on the production year and trim level of your Toyota RAV4, it might use any one of the five battery sizes listed above. To help you determine which group size will work for your RAV4, examine the table below. It lists every iteration of the Toyota RAV4 and which battery group size each one uses:

Using the table above, you should be able to determine exactly what battery size your Toyota RAV4 uses. However, if you don’t know which year your RAV4 was produced, or which trim level it is, you can always take a look at the battery that’s currently installed in your SUV. The correct group size should be clearly labeled on the current battery.

As long as you keep your Toyota well cared for and follow its recommended routine maintenance schedule, your battery should last three to five years. After that, it will need to be replaced—it will begin to deteriorate and lose the ability to hold a charge.
