As a comparison, the new Chevrolet Spark EV uses a 100 kW motor with 542 N·m of torque. The powertrain system features an advanced battery liquid cooling system, an innovative motor efficiency optimizer, a rechargeable energy storage system mated to a low gear design, and low-rolling resistance tires.

Their work, they suggest, demonstrates that substitution of lithium by sodium may offer an unexpected route towards rechargeable metal–air batteries. However, this system can also suffer from similar high overpotentials and low energy efficiencies when using carbonate-based sodium electrolytes. The electrolyte was a 0.5
