Rechargeable magnesium batteries are of great interest as potential “beyond Li-ion” systems for extended electric vehicle range. Because magnesium is divalent, it can displace double the charge per ion (i.e., Mg 2+ rather than Li + ). As an element, magnesium is more abundant than lithium, and more stable.

The Soul EV is equipped with a 27kWh, air-cooled, 200 Wh/kg Li-ion polymer battery pack located beneath the floor. The 360V 96-cell lithium-ion polymer battery has been engineered for high capacity, thermal stability and safety. Internal testing and evaluation showed results exceeding 100 miles in some instances.
