A battery cell for a vehicle includes a cell can having a first wall, a second wall, a first side wall and a second side wall. The first wall, the second wall, the first side wall, and the second side wall defining an electrode stack receiving zone. A vent is formed in the second wall. The vent is spaced from the first side wall and the second side wall. The vent fluidically connects the electrode stack receiving zone with an exterior of the cell can. An electrode stack is positioned in the electrode stack receiving zone. The electrode stack is spaced from of the first side wall by a channel. A cell stack support is arranged in the electrode stack receiving zone and supporting the electrode stack above the second wall. The cell stack support includes at least one passage that transports gases from the channel to the vent.
