Tesla

Regenerative braking technology is a bliss for the efficiency of <a href="https://www.licarco.com/cars">all-electric vehicles</a>. But it takes time to get used to this helpful feature. Sometimes it gets annoying or makes no sense on some occasions. There is an option to turn it off, but things get complicated with <a href="https://www.licarco.com/news/how-many-tesla-cars-have-been-sold">Tesla vehicles</a>. Let us explain.
If you want to turn off regenerative braking on your Tesla, you probably won&#8217;t find any disabling option in the menu. Because turning off regenerative braking is not possible on a Tesla. It is also impossible to adjust the regen on Tesla vehicles built since Q2 2020. Tesla Model S/3/X/Y vehicles built before that date can still be able to offer adjustments. You just need to navigate through the main screen and go to Driving, then change the &#8216;Regenerative Braking&#8217; to &#8216;Low&#8217; for reducing the level of regenerative braking.
Newer Tesla vehicles come with standard level regen as default. There is no &#8216;Regenerative Braking&#8217; adjustment option anymore. So, why wouldn&#8217;t Tesla allow its drivers to adjust regenerative braking? The main reason is that the vehicle range is heavily affected by not being able to recuperate the energy you otherwise lost to heat, etc by pressing the brake pedal. Other automakers agree with Tesla as well. According to <a class="editor-rtfLink" href="https://electrek.co/2018/08/08/audi-e-tron-quattro-electric-suv-range-regen-braking/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Audi</a>, regenerative braking can extend the range by up to 30% on average. Soon, every new electric vehicle on the market will probably remove the option to adjust regenerative braking for the sake of efficiency.

If you drive a Tesla vehicle built before Q2 2022, your car&#8217;s main screen comes with an option to adjust regenerative braking. You just need to go to settings, then select the &#8216;Driving&#8217; menu from the left and change the &#8216;Regenerative Braking&#8217; option to &#8216;Low&#8217; for partially turning off the regen.
You won&#8217;t be able to turn off this feature. There is, however, a way to heavily limit the effects of regen braking. Here&#8217;s how:
<h3>Why Does Regenerative Braking Limited on My Tesla?</h3>
If you live in a cold area or your battery is fully charged, your Tesla vehicle would warn you about the regenerative braking is being limited. That&#8217;s because the battery is unable to receive the energy from the regen system and the battery&#8217;s management system temporarily turns off the regenerative braking feature. It might take up to half an hour for your vehicle to recover from that. In order to reduce the negative effects of this limitation, you can enable an extra feature for automatically applying the brake pedals instead of regen braking. Just go to Controls &gt; Pedals &amp; Steering, then turn on the &#8216;Apply Brakes When Regenerative Braking is Limited&#8217; option.
<h3>Does Regenerative Braking Work on Icy/Snowy Roads?</h3>
Not being able to turn off regenerative braking might sound dangerous on icy/snowy roads, but Tesla has a solution for this. In 2022, Tesla adjusted the traction control software of its vehicles and added a hidden snow mode. Its main function is to better handle regen braking adjustments on icy roads and snow. Take a look at the video down below for more detail.

How to Turn Off Regenerative Braking on a Tesla?

Tesla vehicles are famous for their in-car entertainment experience. There are a bunch of games available for drivers to enjoy while charging their vehicles or spending some time inside the car. You can even use a game controller for better experience. A couple of games will also require you to connect a controller to play.
In this article, we created a guide to help you easily connect your Xbox controller to your Tesla Model 3/Y.
<h2>A Complete Guide to Connecting an Xbox Controller to Tesla Model 3/Y</h2>
If you want to play games with an Xbox controller on your Tesla, use a data cable (not a charge-only USB cable that lacks the data transfer function) to plug your controller into your Tesla Model 3/Y&#8217;s main screen via the USB-C ports in the center console or the USB-A port in the glove box. If you prefer a wireless connection, or your controller cannot be connected to your Tesla via cable, just follow our guide down below.
Step 1. Buy a wireless adapter/dongle for pairing your Xbox controller. <a href="https://amzn.to/3HCaTTv">8Bitdo Wireless USB Adapter 2</a> and <a href="https://amzn.to/3jyyigK">MAYFLASH Magic NS 2</a> are two of the most popular choices.
Step 2. Plug the wireless adapter into your Tesla via USB data ports. Use a USB-A to USB-C adapter if necessary. Please be aware that newer Model 3/Y vehicles don&#8217;t have USB data ports in the center console. You will need to use the USB-A port inside the glove compartment.
Step 3. Put your wireless adapter into pairing mode. 8Bitdo&#8217;s pairing button is on the bottom, whereas the Magic NS&#8217;s pairing mode can be activated by pressing the black button on the side until the light goes green and blinks fast.
<img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-32404" src="https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/xbox-pairing-illustration.png" alt="" width="755" height="425" srcset="https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/xbox-pairing-illustration.png 755w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/xbox-pairing-illustration-300x169.png 300w" sizes="(max-width: 755px) 100vw, 755px" />
Step 4. In order to put your controller into pairing mode, first press the Xbox button for one second until it lights up. Then, press and hold the circular pair button located on the back of the controller for three seconds.
Step 5. Once the wireless adapter and Xbox controller ared paired up, the lights on both of these devices will stop blinking. You will see a notification message on your Tesla&#8217;s screen that confirms the pairing.
Enjoy your games!
<h3>My Tesla says the Xbox controller is disconnected. How can I fix it?</h3>
Your wireless adapter might lose the connection between your Tesla and the Xbox controller. You just need to unplug the adapter and plug it into the car again. The controller will be paired with your car in a few seconds. If you experience this issue often, you might need to contact your seller and ask about the wireless adapter&#8217;s firmware update status. Sometimes a small update could fix these disconnection problems.
<h3>Can I connect all Xbox controllers to my Tesla?</h3>
There are numerous reports on people using Xbox 360, Xbox One, Xbox Series S, and Series X controllers both wirelessly and wired to play games on their Teslas. But some of these controllers are not supported by all wireless dongles on the market. You need to thoroughly research before buying an adapter.

Making its mark on the European market with the electric range extender Qashqai e-Power, Nissan gave the first signal for the transition to fully electric vehicles. Guillaume Cartier, Europe Manager of the Japanese automotive giant, announced that Nissan will start producing three popular SUV models electrified in the next few years.
Nissan&#8217;s best-selling models will officially get an electric version between 2025 and 2027. The company, which will first launch the electric Nissan Juke model in 2025, will use the CMF-EV platform, just like the <a href="https://www.licarco.com/nissan-ariya-e-4orce-87-kwh">Nissan Ariya</a> and <a href="https://www.licarco.com/renault-megane-e-tech-ev60">Renault Megane E-Tech</a>.

Along with the all-electric Juke, the e-Power version will also be on sale. In 2030, the company predicts that completely electric vehicles will account for half of its global sales. Nissan will remove gasoline and diesel engine models from production in a few years.
<h2>Three Electric SUVs Incoming</h2>
After the electric Juke, the fully electric Nissan Qashqai and X-Trail will be launched in 2026 and 2027.  The CEO of Nissan Europe stated that the company took the first step toward electrification with e-Power. All three SUVs would be available to consumers with electric models in a few years.
Nissan Ariya, which left the X-Trail behind in European sales last year, can offer a range of about 500 kilometers with a 90 kWh battery. It is most likely that the electric Qashqai and others would have a longer range.
Based on the timeline announced by the Nissan executive, it seems unlikely that these models will catch up with the solid-state batteries developed by the Japanese company. Nissan, which is developing its own solid electrolyte lithium-ion cells, planned to use these battery cells for the first time in 2028, which will provide much higher energy density and high-speed charging capability of 400 kW.

Electric Nissan Qashqai, Juke and X-Trail Officially Confirmed

Factorial Energy is a start-up working on the next generation of solid-state batteries. Over the past six years, it has significantly invested in solid-state battery technology. At the 2023 Consumers Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas, they displayed a prototype of their new 100 Amp-hour(Ah) batteries.
Previously, the start-up demonstrated a 40 Ah solid-state battery cell prototype. Using its so-called Factorial Electrolyte System Technology(FEST), Factorial is also attempting to use current lithium-ion battery production facilities to reduce costs.
<h2>The Cell Enables Lighter EVs or a Longer Driving Range</h2>
The prototype cell was created as part of the collaborative development agreement between Factorial and Stellantis. It was first announced in November 2021. It fulfills solid-state performance claims without the catastrophic flaws seen in earlier generations of the technology. The technology will debut in the high-end market to test its effectiveness and producibility.
Carlos Tavares, CEO of Stellantis, emphasized the prototype solid-state cells&#8217; 30% greater density than typical lithium-ion batteries during his keynote address. Depending on the manufacturer&#8217;s priorities, this might enable a lighter car or a longer driving range.
<h2>How Solid-State Battery Works?</h2>
A solid-state battery functions very similarly to a lithium-ion battery. The battery&#8217;s anode and cathode are constructed from materials that conduct electricity. Between the two electrodes that hold the charged ion particles, there is an electrolyte. Between the electrodes, the lithium ions circulate through the electrolyte. Current is created by the flow of these charged particles in a certain direction. It is referred to as charging when the ions flow from the cathode to the anode, or from the positive electrode to the negative electrode. Similarly to this, the battery is discharged and electricity is supplied to the load when ions move in the opposite way, from the anode to the cathode.
The essence of the matter is that a better energy density, the possibility for extremely quick charging, and a reduced chance of fires brought on by high temperatures are some advantages of solid-state batteries.

Factorial Reveals 100 Amp/Hour Solid-State Battery Cell Concept

Togg

Chinese-American battery manufacturer Farasis announced its new strategy and a new high-nickel battery product at a press event in Beijing. The next-gen lithium-ion battery is called SPS, or &#8220;Super Pouch Solution&#8221;. As the name suggests, Farasis is switching to CTP (Cell-to-Pack) battery design with bigger pouch cells. This new design will allow EVs using the latest cells from Farasis to travel up to 400 kilometers with 10 minutes of charging. Super Pouch will also support the direct-recycling process developed by the battery maker.
Related Article: <a class="editor-rtfLink" href="https://www.licarco.com/news/lithium-ion-battery-cell-types-lfp-nmc-cells-explained" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Lithium-Ion Battery Cell Types, LFP, NMC Explained</a>
Thanks to the bigger, thicker pouch-cell form factor, Super Pouch batteries will reach a gravimetric pack-level energy density of 330 Wh/kg. Farasis confirmed that its new NMC cell will support 800V electrical architecture, up to 4C discharge rates, and 300-350 kW DC charging speeds that will allow 400 kilometers of range with a 10-minute charging session.
The module-less battery pack will include a two-sided liquid cooling system and heat dissipation plates on three sides of every pouch cell. Advanced thermal management system will not only quadruple heat dissipation efficiency but also extend battery life to more than 3,000 cycles.
Horizontally placed big pouch cells will allow Farasis to decrease the number of battery parts by 50%, reduce material costs by up to 33%, and increase volume utilization to 75%. The compact battery pack will be able to hold off more than 90 percent of its energy capacity in extreme cold weather conditions (-20 Celcius).

Currently, Farasis only offers high-nickel NMC811 and NMC622 pouch cells. With the new strategy, Chinese company will add some competitive options to its product portfolio, such as LFP, high-manganese NMC, and low-cost sodium-ion battery cells.
Thanks to a much improved semi-solid electrolyte and silicone anode, Farasis will be able to produce NMC cells with 300 to 400 Wh/kg energy density. After switching to a fully solid-state electrolyte in 2028, energy density levels will reach as far as 500 Wh/kilogram, which will hopefully be enough to be used in the aviation industry.
Next year, Farasis is getting into the LFP wagon as well. They will not only produce lithium-iron-phosphate batteries but also offer more energy-dense LMFP (Lithium manganese-iron-phosphate) cells. The energy density level will vary between 200 to 240 Wh/kg. These will not be the cheapest option Farasis will provide. Sodium-ion battery production is also due in 2023 with an energy density of 160 Wh/kg. Farasis predicts that its sodium-ion cells will be best for energy storage applications and entry-level EVs. Energy density-wise, these cells will go as high as 230 Wh/kg by 2030.
<h2>Battery Plants Will Cost Less, Thanks to Improved Battery Tech</h2>
<img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="alignnone size-large wp-image-21574" src="https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/farasis-battery-plant-footage-1024x575.jpg" alt="" width="750" height="421" srcset="https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/farasis-battery-plant-footage-1024x575.jpg 1024w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/farasis-battery-plant-footage-300x168.jpg 300w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/farasis-battery-plant-footage-768x431.jpg 768w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/farasis-battery-plant-footage-1536x863.jpg 1536w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/farasis-battery-plant-footage-1568x881.jpg 1568w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/farasis-battery-plant-footage.jpg 1898w" sizes="(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px" />
Improved battery chemistry and much higher energy density will allow Farasis to cut manufacturing equipment costs by 50 percent. Super Pouch-producing factories will also require 60% less space for the same amount of battery production output.
Farasis also said that new battery plants will consume 35% less energy and lower production costs by 30%. Chinese company has agreed to open a battery plant in Turkey with domestic EV brand <a href="https://www.licarco.com/togg-c-suv">Togg</a>. This new plant will definitely produce next-gen pouch cells from Farasis starting in 2025. <a href="https://www.licarco.com/zeekr-001-single-motor-we">Geely</a> also established a joint venture with Farasis to construct multiple battery cell production sites and co-develop future battery technologies. Both of these partners will make use of Super Pouch&#8217;s cost-cutting, energy-dense design.

Farasis has been developing lithium-ion batteries ever since Yu Wang and Keith Kepler established their first company in 2002. After a dramatic transfer to China in 2009 and a collaboration with Mercedes-Benz, Farasis quickly became the industry&#8217;s one of the most successful battery start-ups in the early 2010s. It even made it into the world&#8217;s 10 largest battery manufacturers in 2017 and 2018. Even though it had early success in this emerging field, Farasis has yet to make its big leap forward. They have been struggling to ramp up production. With the new strategy, company&#8217;s offering will cover every customer&#8217;s needs from low-cost sodium-ion cells to high-nickel NMC batteries with silicon anode.

ProLogium, the world-famous solid-state <a href="https://www.licarco.com/news/lithium-ion-battery-cell-types-lfp-nmc-cells-explained">battery</a> company, reveals its plan for an $8 billion European battery plant. According to Reuters, Asian firm made a short list of countries for this huge investment. These countries are Germany, United Kingdom, France, and Poland.

Established in 2006, Taiwanese battery company first commercialized its lithium-ceramic battery with a phone case designed for HTC One Max in 2013. After proving its worth and a couple of successful funding rounds, ProLogium signed contracts with some promising Chinese EV manufacturers, namely NIO, Aiways, and Enovate. Rumors suggest that NIO will produce its 150-kWh battery pack option in collaboration with ProLogium.
LCB (Lithium-Ceramic Battery) manufacturer closed its latest investment round with $326 million funding in October 2021. It was in early 2022 that finally a Tier-1 automaker recognized ProLogium&#8217;s success and made an investment. Mercedes-Benz signed a partnership agreement with the company and invested almost €100 million into its technology. Two companies will co-develop and produce solid-state battery cells in the near future.
German carmaker is not the only one that is fond of ProLogium&#8217;s SSB (Solid-State Battery) technologies. In March 2022, Taiwanese e-scooter firm Gogoro announced the world&#8217;s first <a href="https://www.licarco.com/news/kymco-prepares-to-launch-its-battery-swapping-electric-scooters-in-europe">swappable scooter battery pack</a> developed by ProLogium. In May, global steel giant POSCO confirmed that it will develop and produce battery materials with the help of a partnership with ProLogium. Vinfast also revealed its plan to buy solid-state batteries from the company starting in 2024.
Aside from these very promising partnership agreements, ProLogium also received a strategic investment from China&#8217;s Reform Fund in June 2022. It will improve ProLogium&#8217;s relations with mainland China and give them a chance to establish their first solid-state battery plant there.
<h2>Solid-State EV Batteries is Coming Sooner Than You Think</h2>
<img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="alignnone wp-image-21042 size-large" src="https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/prologium-battery-plant-1024x523.jpg" alt="" width="750" height="383" srcset="https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/prologium-battery-plant-1024x523.jpg 1024w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/prologium-battery-plant-300x153.jpg 300w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/prologium-battery-plant-768x392.jpg 768w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/prologium-battery-plant-1536x784.jpg 1536w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/prologium-battery-plant-2048x1046.jpg 2048w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/prologium-battery-plant-1568x801.jpg 1568w" sizes="(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px" />
Taiwanese battery maker will spend $8 billion over the next decade and construct a solid-state battery plant with an annual capacity of 120 GWh in Europe. The batteries soon to be manufactured in Europe will be used inside electric vehicles. Today&#8217;s news clearly shows that solid-state EV batteries are not as far as we think they are.
ProLogium&#8217;s first solid-state battery plant will start mass production early next year with a 3 GWh annual capacity. The first batch of lithium-ceramic cells will probably ship to Chinese EV maker NIO and e-scooter giant Gogoro. These two company has been teasing solid-state batteries for a while.
Solid-state EV batteries will dramatically improve range, thanks to higher energy density. They will also speed up charging sessions, EVs with solid-state batteries could be fully charged in a matter of minutes. The only problem is that these batteries tend to degrade quicker than ordinary lithium-ion batteries with liquid electrolytes. ProLogium has been trying to extend lithium-ceramic cells&#8217; lifetime for over a decade. It probably solved this critical problem, as hefty investment news highly suggests.

Solid-State Battery Maker ProLogium Invests $8 Billion on European Battery Plant

Solid Power’s plan to produce solid-state lithium-ion batteries goes back to 2017. It was reported that BMW and Solid Power set up a partnership to develop batteries without semi-liquid electrolytes. Since then, Ford has joined up as a significant investor in Solid Power.
Solid Power has been founded in 2012 and they are producing solid-state batteries with a sulfur-based electrolyte and an anode with higher silicon (more than %50) in it.

The Colorado-based company has finished a manufacturing line for its solid-state batteries that will allow producing 15.000 battery cells a year. That number might seem too few, however, Solid Power will deliver them to BMW and Ford for testing in their battery electric vehicles. After the tests are done, the company will increase the production volume.
<h2>Solid Power is ahead of its rivals</h2>
Solid Power has advantages against its rivals with its technology. The company’s batteries have higher density, more range, and shorter charging time compared to conventional ones. Furthermore, they are more convenient than other solid-state batteries because these batteries can be produced in any battery plant without any further upgrades.

Solid Power CEO Doug Campell tells that “The installation of this EV cell pilot line will allow us to produce EV-scale cells suitable for initiating the formal automotive qualification process. Over the coming quarters, we will work to bring the EV cell pilot line up to its full operational capability and look forward to delivering EV-scale all-solid-state cells to our partners later this year.”
By the end of this year, the Colorado-based battery manufacturer plans to deliver to its partners, BMW and Ford, for testing in their prototypes. This will be a major step in the validation process for the solid-state batteries to be sold to other car manufacturers on a larger scale.
The company expects to bring other automakers to join Solid Power’s battery design in the first six months of 2024, which means that we can see the first vehicles with solid-state batteries in two years.

Solid Power to Start Production of Solid-State Batteries

<a href="https://www.licarco.com/cars?filter=nissan">Nissan</a> debuted its macro prototype production facility for laminated all-solid-state battery (ASSB) cells. The plant is situated in Kanagawa Prefecture, Japan, as part of the Nissan Research Center.
In November 2021, the Japanese company confirmed the in-house progress of solid-state batteries, with plans to set up trial manufacturing at its Yokohama Plant in fiscal 2024 and release the very first EV enabled by the new batteries in fiscal 2028.
The newly designed production process is a crucial stage toward commercial exploitation of those upcoming batteries, which Nissan expects to focus on providing a power density roughly twice that of classic <a href="https://www.licarco.com/news/how-long-electric-car-battery-last-battery-replacement-cost">lithium-ion batteries</a>, considerably shorter charging time due to outstanding charge/discharge results, and reduced cost due to the ability to use less expensive materials.

Nissan has been developing lithium-ion batteries for a long time (over 20 years), and we fully comprehend that the company plans to continue its in-house technique with solid-state batteries as well. As we&#8217;ve seen, the external form factor is similar to the company&#8217;s current conventional cells &#8211; laminated cells.
In presenting the prototype production facility, Nissan reiterated its very ambitious battery cell cost targets of $75 per kWh in fiscal 2028 and $65 per kWh thereafter (on the pack level). According to Nissan, electric car costs should indeed be lowered to the very same level as internal combustion engine vehicles.
<h2>Nissan battery technology goals in a nutshell</h2>
<ul>

Nissan Debuts Manufacturing Plant Prototype For Solid-State Batteries

In a global market with demand surpassing 3,000GWh by 2030, lithium iron phosphate (LFP) will overtake nickel manganese cobalt (NMC) as the dominating battery chemistry by 2028. That&#8217;s according to a recent report from Wood Mackenzie Power &amp; Renewables on the lithium-ion battery manufacturing business. China&#8217;s CATL and South Korea&#8217;s LG are the highest-ranked manufacturers expected to increase its most manufacturing capability this decade. By 2030, CATL plans to have 800GWh of yearly production capacity online.
The raw materials required to make them are plentiful, low-cost, and available in practically every country. As a consequence, they are usually less expensive. Nickel prices have reached insane new highs today, exposing the pricing difference between LFP and conventional batteries even further. Increased nickel prices have already prompted automakers to boost the prices of many of the current electric vehicles on the market.

Gotion High-Tech expects to be able to begin large-scale production of an LFP battery with an energy output of 230 Wh/kg by the end of the year. Comparable battery packs with an energy density of 210 Wh/kg are already in production. In comparison, the energy density of today&#8217;s cobalt and nickel-based cells is around 250 to 270 Wh/kg. &#8220;At a certain point, ternary lithium batteries will be replaced on a wider scale in Gotion,&#8221; Gotion CEO Li Zhen said this week at the China EV100 Forum 2022. Notwithstanding to this, Gotion continues to spend money on new ternary battery tech use much less nickel and cobalt. In the coming years, it anticipates ramping up production of a semi-solid-state battery with a battery capacity of 360 Wh/kg. Volkswagen is collaborating with Gotion and stands to gain from its battery research and development initiatives.
