What is the right BMW 330i battery size?

I’m trying to buy a new battery for my 2017 BMW, but I really don’t have any idea what I’m doing. These batteries all have a thousand different numbers and codes. I just don’t know what I’m looking for. What is the right BMW 330i battery size?

Yikes! Yes, the battery aisle can be a bit overwhelming if you’re not familiar with all the terms and ratings. What kind of battery is right for your
BMW 330I
will depend on the year it was made and the trim package it belongs to.
Since you mentioned that it’s a 2017 model, you’ll either need an H7 or an H6 battery.
If you have a Wagon or Sedan trim package, then you’ll need the H6 battery with dimensions of 11 1/16 in. long by 6 7/8 in. wide and 7 9/16 in. tall.
If, on the other hand, it belongs to the opt wagon or the opt sedan packages, then it’s going to need that H7 battery which is 12 3/8 in. by 6 7/8 in. by 7 1/2 in.
Follow those guides and you shouldn’t have any trouble finding just the right battery for your car. If you’d also like to find the right
