The Civic uses a compact engine-bay battery. On the tenth generation, a group 51R battery is commonly fitted — though the label on your car is the final word.
Pick the model year to see its generation. It narrows things down — it doesn’t settle the exact battery on its own.
Choose a year to see which generation it belongs to and what that means for the battery.

We don’t publish battery specifications we haven’t verified. Different engines and equipment can require different batteries, so the exact match is confirmed against your vehicle and the battery currently fitted.
These symptoms can also come from charging faults, parasitic drain, cables or the starter. A battery and charging test tells them apart.
Generation, engine and the fitted battery label are checked against the replacement.
A memory saver is connected where practical.
Covers and heat shields are removed and kept for refitting.
Negative first off, last on. Terminals cleaned, hold-down tightened, vent tube refitted where present.
Window auto-up or similar functions are re-initialised if needed.
Starting and charging voltages are verified before we leave.
Technologies recorded for this model’s generations. The right one for your car depends on its exact specification.
Flooded lead-acid (SLI)
Not suitable where the manufacturer specifies EFB or AGM. Upgrading a conventional application to EFB or AGM is often possible but should be confirmed for the specific vehicle.
