Continental 75-P Performance 12V SLI Battery
Advantage Batteries supplies the Continental 75-P Performance as a factory-activated 12-volt SLI (Starting, Lighting, Ignition) replacement for vehicles that specify BCI Group 75. This is a flooded lead-acid automotive starter, not a deep-cycle or AGM pack. It is sold for cranking duty: 550 SAE cold cranking amps, 660 SAE cranking amps, and 80 minutes of reserve capacity in a Group 75 case with side-terminal Type S posts.
Use this SKU when the application calls for Group 75, 12 volts, flooded SLI chemistry, and side terminals. Confirm group size, tray dimensions, terminal style, and cable reach before purchase. Group 75 is not a substitute for Group 78, 34/78, 65, or 86 unless the vehicle also lists Group 75. If the vehicle lists a different BCI group or uses top posts only, this unit will not be a correct fit.
Shop the Continental 75-P online or pick it up at a qualifying Advantage Batteries location.

Warranty
Continental backs the 75-P Performance with an 18-month manufacturer warranty. That term is the one published on the Continental 75-P product page. It is not a 24-month Supreme-line term and not an Advantage Batteries house warranty unless stated separately at checkout.
Warranty coverage follows the manufacturer’s policy: defects in materials and workmanship for the published period when the battery is used as an automotive SLI unit in a matching Group 75 application. Abuse, deep discharge, incorrect group size, or use outside SLI duty typically voids coverage. Keep the purchase record. File a claim through Advantage Batteries or Continental per the policy in effect at sale.
Fitment and install notes
- Match BCI Group 75 on the existing battery or in the vehicle’s battery spec. Do not substitute a Group 78 or Group 34/78 because CCA looks similar.
- Confirm side-terminal Type S cables. This data sheet does not list top posts. Top-post-only vehicles need a different SKU.
- Measure the tray against 9.40 × 6.92 × 7.19 in before ordering.
- Continental also lists a dual-group 75/86-P. Use 75-P when the vehicle specifies Group 75 and you need the published Type S side-terminal 75-P data sheet. Use 75/86-P only if the vehicle accepts that dual group and you have verified terminals on the unit being replaced.
- This is a flooded battery. Keep it upright. Do not mount on its side.
- Factory-activated means it ships wet and charged for install; still verify open-circuit voltage and charge if it has sat.
- After install, seat the hold-down and confirm cable polarity before the first start.
