The IM L6’s upcoming Lightyear Edition shows that the Chinese EV brands aren’t sitting still when trying new battery technologies. With semi-solid-state batteries now going into production cars on the roads in the coming months with over 1,000 km of range, the advancements in battery technologies continue towards a potential solid-state future.
This model is equipped with a quasi-900V semi-solid-state battery, referred to as the “Lightyear” battery, that supports ultra-fast charging. The Lightyear battery, developed by Suzhou Qingdao New Energy Technology Co., Ltd., is designed with Level 0 thermal spread prevention, a feature intended to avoid thermal runaway and enhance safety.
According to the company, the 150-kWh Ultra Long Range Battery Pack is the world's first pouch format cell CTP Pack with no thermal propagation design; it has a cell energy density of up to 360 Watt-hours/kilogram, the highest for mass produced production car battery packs in China.
That’s around 40% of the charge in 12 minutes, which is comparable to some other EVs in the Chinese market. This semi-solid-state battery pack was developed by Qungtao Energy and has received investment from SAIC itself. SAIC is now incorporating the batteries developed by Qungtao Energy into its production vehicles like the IM L6.
Nio currently offers the 150-kWh Ultra Long Range battery exclusively in China for users of its Battery as a Service (BaaS) subscription model. The battery is compatible with Nio's entire range of smart EVs through the company's chargeable, upgradable and swappable power service system.
