    S46B24R definitely is longer than S34B20R. The S46B24R can be installed in a Prius which does not have Smart Entry/Smart Start, if you replace the battery bracket with a bracket intended for the longer S46B24R battery.

    Follow-up on the S46B24R battery for a 2007 prius package 6 (not touring) Is the dealer battery or the optima on top of the recommendation? I believe I need one.

    I would buy the GS Yuasa battery from the local Toyota dealer as first choice.
