i was looking in my trunk were my spare tire is and theres a car battery there and its all hooked up with wires ,does the cobalts come with 2 batterys and why

 

Nope, Just one in the back.

 

isnt there 1 in the front 2

 

Not that I know of. Wait till an owner answers...

 

nope

 

all the cobalts have 1 battery in the trunk and thats all

 

I have to ask- why is this? just to be different?

 

That's a fusebox in the front. It has terminals wired to the battery in the back when you need to jump start it.

 

I had too. Our cars have the fuse box under the hood and the battery in the trunk. Why.?? no clue

 

when my salesman showed me the trunk and said " heres your battery" i freak. the salesman said that its back there so it wont get dirty-from the engine-stay warmer-so it hold a charge longer ( not to sure about that one, but its what he said). cant remember to much else- it was like 32' outside @ night and we were freezing our butts off!

 

It was most likely put there because there really isn't enough room in our engine bay since the fuse box had to go in there.

 

is the IONs battery located in the trunk too?

 

The battery was put in the trunk For weight distribution . Just like most race cars .

 

Ya, what he said. ^^^^^ The battery is in the back for better weight distribution. This make the car better in the corners.

 

I know most turbo kits and supercharger kits for cars require battery to be moved to the truck because of space requirements, I figured this is why the ss/sc battery is in the back. Is it in the back on all models?

 

Yes they are. I belive it is all the cars built on the platform not just the SS and Red Line

 

The SS and red line only have the baqttery in the back. The other base modle have the battery right were the motor mount is. Right above the pasenger side tier. The SS could have one put there (there is room for one)but then it would not handle as well.

 

Room...

 

I agree that it makes it better in the corner, but If I was concerned with 1/4 Mile on a front drive car... Over the Driveline would be my suggestion.

Did you SC/SS owners see that there is alot of room on the Pass side over the mount...



Perhaps room for a small sealed race cell..

 

Um no, my base model is in the back

 

I did this beacuse the posters name was jclue and I found it odd...I wasn't trying to be mean....honest

 

also because it's cooler back there witch would help it live longer then if it was under the hood.

 

or, an icebox

 

mine too

 

picture very interesting
