The traditional design paradigm for Li-ion battery cathodes has been to create compounds in which the amount of extractable Li + is well balanced with an oxidizable transition metal (TM) species (such as Mn, Fe, Co or Ni) to provide the charge-compensating electrons, all contained in an oxide or sulfide host. It’s not scalable.

With the Mercedes-Benz VISION EQXX accomplishing a major feat of over 1,000 kilometers (620 miles) driven on a single charge earlier this week, many may wonder if Tesla engineers are scrambling around attempting to crank out some new EV with 2,000 kilometers of range. It underpins our strategic aim to ‘Lead in Electric.'”
