How much are kirkland car batteries at costco?

We were able to find a variety of Costco's Kirkland automobile batteries at a variety of price points.

The least expensive battery we found supplied 760 amps of power (610 amps of cold cranking power at 32°F); model #12873 retails for $66.99

The highest priced Kirkland auto battery we found was model #12877; it supplies 1,000 amps/795 amps, and retails for $83.99.

The Kirkland batteries are made by Johnson Controls; they are the same company that makes batteries for AutoZone (Duralast), Sears (Diehard), and Ford (Motorcraft).

After reading through several reviews, it appears that not only do Kirkland batteries cost less, they're every bit as good as other top brands, and many customers that bought Kirkland brand in the past, buy Kirkland brand batteries when it is time for a replacement.

Of interest, Johnson Controls is supporting relief efforts for the recent Oklahoma tornado disaster. Their donation is part of a five-year, $2.5 million commitment to the American Red Cross Annual Disaster Giving Program.

In 2013, Johnson Controls was recognized by "Corporate Responsibility Magazine" as the #14 company in its annual "100 Best Corporate Citizens" list.
