Asked by Russell Tulloch
I was surprised to find that the battery in my 2010 VE Holden Calais was located in the boot. Can you tell me why?
Answered by CarsGuide
7 Apr 2011It is not unusual for the battery to be placed in the boot; some carmakers have been doing that for many years. You might notice that it's often placed there in race cars for weight distribution reasons, to get more weight over the rear wheels, but in regular passenger cars it's mostly done for packaging reasons. One look at the engine bay of most cars today is enough to know that it's a pretty crowded place, and putting the battery in the boot alleviates that problem.
