2012 Subaru Impreza Battery

Some vehicles use a wide variety of batteries over their production run, but the Subaru Impreza, including the WRX and WRX STi variants, have historically used a Group 35 battery, which OPTIMA offers in both REDTOP and YELLOWTOP varieties for the 2012 Impreza. Choosing the battery that is right for your vehicle between those two options is also relatively-straightforward.

If your Suburu Impreza is basically stock and used as a daily driver, the REDTOP 35 is a great choice. If your Impreza has significant electrical demands, like an aftermarket stereo system, car alarm, dash cam, etc..., then an OPTIMA YELLOWTOP Group 35 battery, designed for both starting and deep-cycle use, would be the recommended choice.

Regardless of which OPTIMA battery you choose for your Impreza, you will maximize battery performance and lifespan, by keeping the voltage properly-maintained whenever possible (at least 12.6V for REDTOPs and at least 13.0V for YELLOWTOPs). We're so confident this is the case, we will offer an additional year of free replacement warranty coverage on your OPTIMA battery, if you purchase it from us at the same time that you purchase an OPTIMA Digital 1200 battery charger!
