Breakthrough 1000km driving range semi-solid state battery reaches production: New Chinese electric car beats Toyota, Nissan, Mercedes-Benz and Volkswagen to beating range anxiety
The electric car industry is rushing to find better batteries for EVs, and we’ve learnt that Chinese carmaker IM is only weeks away from rolling out a mass-produced model with a revolutionary semi-solid state battery called the Lightyear in its L6 sedan.
The world is growing out of the lithium ion packs which have been powering electric cars for the past decade and by that we mean buyers are now demanding faster charging batteries that are safer and of course offer more range.
Lithium ion batteries use a liquid or gel electrolyte which has charging speed and range limitations and is potentially flammable. Semi-solid state batteries, on the other hand, use a solid material suspended in a liquid electrolyte making them more stable. Fire-risk is reduced because leakage is less likely.
