In the manual. If you don't have it for some reason, online as well. And there is an app for that.

It is in the rear hatch, right side, under the carpet. I don't want to be too mean, but the battery is a pretty basic piece to know in every car you drive, like how to change the tires (that last one is kind of a test for you because you should know about the spare tire on this car :-).

If this is something you are not sure of, then please take the time to read through it quickly or you may not know how to get out of your car when the battery dies. Or get in.

Additionally the charging plug is in cargo area on right side, like a cigarette lighter plug, need to get in habit of using it if not driven often.

Trunk right side. You reallty seem like the kind of fellow who should sit down with the manual and read it front to back. You will get a LOT more for your money.

I agree with the recommendation about reading the owner's manual. I am in the process of doing that now for my new to me 2014.

Easy boys, perhaps TeddyCarnut really doesn't have a C7 and merely wanted a little Forum Holiday Good Cheer and info.
