Almost all cars will run with the battery disconnected. They have a generator that will produce enough electricity to keep the vehicle running.
-----------------
However, DO NOT RUN THE CAR WITH THE BATTERY DISCONNECTED you run a serious risk of destroying your ECM, the main computer in your car. You can also destroy your electronic dash. Without the battery, there is no load and the alternator is free to overcharge and destroy anything and everything electrical on the car. Yes, it is possible to run the car on alternator only, but it is a very bad idea....DONT DO IT.
