The capacitor element has an anode lead wire, an anode body and a cathode layer. The capacitor element has an upper surface and a lower surface in an up-down direction. The outer cathode terminal and the outer anode terminal are positioned away from each other in a predetermined direction perpendicular to the up-down direction. The outer cathode terminal has an upper portion, a lower portion and a connecting portion. One of the upper portion and the lower portion is longer than a remaining one of the upper portion and the lower portion in the predetermined direction. The outer mold covers the capacitor element so that each of the outer anode terminal and the outer cathode terminal is partially exposed to an outside of the solid electrolytic capacitor.
