So the battery is in the trunk...confirmed?

Searched around and from the engine bay pictures it looks like the battery must be in the trunk, but has this been confirmed?

What group size is that battery in the trunk? CCA's - Reserve?

Is that a maintenance free batt?

How do I jump-start it?

Is it positive or neg ground?

12v?

Factory warranty specifics?

Is there a HD batt option?

How many amps is the alternator that charges the battery in the trunk?

Does it utilize a diode trio?
