One of the hurdles in the race to develop automotive Li-ion battery systems for high volume hybrid, plug-in hybrid and battery electric vehicle programs is improving the technology’s durability. Li-ion would be less costly than NiMH in large volumes - approximately 30 percent less expensive at an annual volume of 3 million hybrids.
