Many Maximas leave the factory with a 12-volt maintenance-free lead-acid battery; however, depending on factory options or previous upgrades, AGM batteries may be used in some applications.

Choosing the correct type at our dealership reduces the risk of electrical faults, supports consistent starting performance, and optimizes reserve capacity for accessory use.

We prioritize long-term value: the right battery type, professionally installed and tested, delivers predictable reliability and lower lifecycle cost.

Battery size goes beyond physical fit; it dictates electrical capacity and cold-cranking ability for your 2011 Nissan Maxima. While Group 35 is commonly recommended for many Maxima configurations, exact fitment can vary with model options and prior modifications. Our service team measures physical dimensions, verifies terminal orientation, and confirms cold-cranking amps (CCA) and reserve capacity to match factory requirements. Installing the correct size prevents loose connections, heat-related damage, and strain on the charging system—issues that often lead to secondary repairs. Choosing Courtesy Nissan of Tampa ensures you receive an exact fit and a battery that meets or exceeds factory specifications, installed by technicians who understand Nissan electrical systems.
