The JAC Yiwei 3 is an electric hatchback in the B-segment that will arrive in June with LFP batteries, but a version powered by a sodium-ion battery is already confirmed to arrive at a later date. I expect to see a lot of A and B segment electric cars powered by sodium-ion batteries announced this year. Exciting times. PushEVs.
Now, with cheap cobalt-free battery chemistries available, such as LFP (LiFePO4) and NIB (sodium-ion battery) there’s no reason why we still allow diesel buses to pollute the air that we all breathe. More info: [link]. Solar-charged electric bus.
CATL : Vast lineup of different battery chemistries, such as NCM, LFP and upcoming sodium-ion. More info: [link] The post BYD could surpass CATL as biggest battery maker first appeared on ??PushEVs. Both battery makers have their pros. Supplies Tesla (but this can also be a problem). Factory in Europe (Germany). PushEVs.
With LFP, LMFP, LNMO and sodium-ion we are starting to have plenty of cobalt-free battery chemistries to power the electric transportation revolution. More info: [link]. Anyway, some battery cell makers such as BYD, Gotion High-Tech, Sunwoda and Eve Energy are also testing LMFP batteries and providing sample units to automakers.
The BYD Seagull and the Wuling Bingo are great representatives of the electric A-segment, however its champion might come from Chery, since this automaker is the first customer for CATL’s sodium-ion batteries. More info: [link] [link] The post Wuling Bingo had a good sales month first appeared on ?PushEVs. PushEVs.
Hopefully, in Europe CATL will focus on cobalt-free chemistries and introduce sodium-ion batteries next year. More info: [link] The post CATL plant in Germany starts mass producing battery cells first appeared on ?PushEVs. The affordable cobalt-free chemistry LFP, the high energy density chemistry NCM or maybe both? PushEVs.
Then there will be a need for price cuts… The good news is that the Qin EV, the Dolphin and the Seagull models are expected to be the first BYD electric cars to get versions with a sodium-ion battery later this year, which will help to cut down the prices easily. Thanks Pedro Ventura for the heads up.
