It is 310mm long, 170mm wide and 190mm high...remember that this an AGM
(Absorbent Glass Matt) Battery and cannot be replaced by a normal lead acid plate type.
The charging system for AGM batteries is different on your Merc so you have to replace like for like. An auto shop will have Merc equivalents.

also the ones that you get from the auto shop will usually be 175 wide instead of 170. They will still fit but you need to remove the clip held on by two bolts at the bottom of the tray.

Thanks fellas
I tried two times to buy the OEM online in the States, but hey, they don't ship batteries, local pick up only. And where I live the OEM costs $650, so I don't think so LOL
Well, yeah, as you guys say, what they sell is 175mm wide.
I bought it anyhow, hopefully it isn't that big of a hassle to put it in because of those 5mm.
The other dimensions are about the same, so great. And the positive is on the same side too.
As for being an AGM type battery, yeah, no worries there. I noticed that, so, I bought it with the same lovely and powerful tech.

I have 2015 GLA250 and this battery did not last 4 years. Pure junk used from Mercedes. The original battery on my Mitsubishi Outlander went bad after 8 years. Guess why- because it was made in Japan.

I found that the coupe uses an H7 battery and the sedan uses an H8. The coupe body is smaller and the H8 will not fit the coupe. It is interesting that most battery charts call for the H8 in the coupe, which is incorrect.
