High-performance starter applications demand a battery capable of delivering reliable, high-amperage cranking power under sustained stress. The Optima Red Top 8022-255 is an AGM battery engineered specifically for that purpose, offering 730 CCA and 44Ah capacity in a robust, maintenance-free package suited to tuned vehicles, street performance cars, and high-demand electrical systems.
Optima's proprietary SPIRALCELL technology forms the foundation of the Red Top's performance advantage. Tightly wound pure lead plates maximise surface area contact, reducing internal resistance and enabling the delivery of strong, consistent cranking current. The absorbed glass mat construction eliminates free electrolyte, making the battery spill-proof, vibration-resistant, and capable of performing reliably in challenging installation positions. The RTU3.7 operates at 12V.
The 8022-255 measures 237mm × 171mm – 197mm (L × W × H) and weighs 15.7kg. It is fitted with a top positive and side terminal configuration (Terminal Type 1 + SIDE), Polarity 1, and suits B01 hold-down applications. This product supports start-stop technology – verify compatibility against the product label prior to fitment. No direct cross-references are listed; confirm suitability against your vehicle specification." No variants are currently available for this SKU.
