Zeekr

⚡ Chinese ZEEKR极氪 announced a major update to its first car, the 001, by replacing over 2,000 components.
🔋 The 2024 Zeekr 001, available with 95 and 100 kWh battery options, now features an 800V architecture. This not only boosts charging speeds up to 350 kW but also significantly enhances the vehicle’s efficiency.
🟢 Transitioning to the new-generation thermal management system called PTM 2.0 along with the battery, the 4.9-meter electric crossover can operate efficiently in both high and low temperatures.
💨 The new 001 offers a single-motor option producing 310 kW (422 HP) and a dual-motor option capable of generating 560 kW (762 HP). Hence, it’s expected to have a starting price around $40,000.
🚗 Equipped with LiDAR sensor-based autonomous driving mode, a new infotainment system powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon 8295 chipset, and numerous interior design changes, the exact price of the 001 will be revealed upon its release on February 27th.

Some EVs in Dubai Continues Through Flooded Streets!

⚡#BYD has revamped its popular electric sedan Han, which sold 220,000 units last year. The 2024 version of the car has been launched in China with a starting price of $25,000.
🟢The 5-meter sedan features a base model with a 150 kW motor, a 60.48 kWh LFP battery, and 110 kW DC charging support. All models come equipped with the new Level 2+ intelligent driving system, DiPilot 100, which has been in development for over 1,000 days. Additionally, the new generation intelligent suspension system, DiSus-C, has been integrated into the 2024 model to enhance Han&#8217;s comfort.

🔋The 2024 BYD Han boasts a range of 506 km (CLTC), which extends up to 715 kilometers in the version with an 85.44 kWh battery. During today&#8217;s event, it was emphasized for the first time that the car features a silicon carbide chip inverter and an 800V architecture. However, the charging speed of the largest battery being limited to 155 kW indicates that the entire high-voltage system is not yet ready for 800V.
🚗In the performance version of the car, a dual-motor powertrain capable of producing 517 horsepower and 700 Nm of torque is used, achieving a 0-100 km/h acceleration time of 3.9 seconds.

Audi, using NCM811 cathode cells produced by Chinese company Contemporary Amperex Technology Co., Limited (CATL) in Germany, states that the larger cell form facilitates battery production. Additionally, it emphasizes that the newly developed smart thermal management system enhances battery life by continuously conditioning the battery and reduces charging time.
Regarding the engine, the company claims a 50% increase in efficiency compared to the first-generation electric Audis and states that it can produce more power with smaller motors by increasing power density by 62%. It should be noted that the Q6 e-tron uses an asynchronous ASM motor at the front and a permanent magnet synchronous PSM motor at the rear, differentiating it from the electric #Macan.

Polestar

⚡StoreDot is a solid state battery initiative. It has very important investors such as #Volvo, VinFast and BP. The initiative introduced its battery solution in which long thin cells are directly integrated into the chassis.
🟢Although it is a solid state battery initiative, It initially developed was a silicon anode lithium ion cell. The initiative says that the first prototype using the solution called XFC will hit the roads this year.
🚙The initiative increases the energy density above 320 Wh/kg thanks to the battery integrated into the chassis and promises more efficient thermal management with its integrated cooling system. It has a target of full charging in 10 minutes. It was previously announced that the battery could maintain this high charging performance at full capacity even after 1,000 cycles.
🔋Mercedes, Volvo, Polestar, VinFast and electric scooter giant Ola Electric are among the manufacturers developing StoreDot battery-powered cars. Polestar is expected to produce its first prototype in 2025.
🔥If there is no delay again, the silicon anode battery will be followed by StoreDot&#8217;s solid state lithium-metal cells a few years later. With these cells, charging time will be reduced to 5 minutes&#8230;

One of the biggest challenges of the EV industry is to provide longer ranges with a single charge. That’s why companies try to develop batteries that can be charged as fast as possible.
Polestar has officially announced that it will make its first financial investment in Israeli battery technology innovator, StoreDot.
StoreDot is the pioneer in manufacturing extreme fast charging (XFC) batteries that will overcome the range and charging anxiety of the EV industry. StoreDot&#8217;s strategic investors and partners include Daimler, BP, VinFast, Volvo, Ola Electric, Samsung, TDK, and the manufacturing partner EVE Energy.
<h2>Revolutionizing the battery architecture</h2>
Polestar CEO, Thomas Ingelath says that “Charging and range anxiety are common concerns holding owners of combustion engine cars back from making the switch to EVs. Store Dot’s advanced battery technology potentially provides real solutions to these obstacles.”
The company has revolutionized the conventional Li-ion battery and has been using two different techniques to produce XFC batteries.
The first technique of StoreDot is to replace the conventional graphite in the battery’s anode with silicon nanoparticles, synthesized together with proprietary small-molecule organic compounds. The Israeli company says that this mix overcomes the inherent challenges of the silicon such as its expansion during the charging cycles and the subsequent energy loss.
Secondly, the battery manufacturer company developed a hybrid-solid electrolyte, which creates a low-resistance flow of ions between the battery’s electrodes, increasing energy density.
<h2>StoreDot promises  100 miles range in under 5 mins</h2>
<img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone size-large wp-image-12057" src="https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/FM17X42XEAIhws5-1024x643.jpeg" alt="" width="750" height="471" srcset="https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/FM17X42XEAIhws5-1024x643.jpeg 1024w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/FM17X42XEAIhws5-300x188.jpeg 300w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/FM17X42XEAIhws5-768x482.jpeg 768w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/FM17X42XEAIhws5-1536x965.jpeg 1536w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/FM17X42XEAIhws5-2048x1286.jpeg 2048w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/FM17X42XEAIhws5-1568x985.jpeg 1568w" sizes="(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px" />
Through its ‘100inX’ product roadmap, StoreDot is confident that its batteries will deliver 160 km/100 miles of charge in five minutes by 2024, three minutes by 2028, and just two minutes by 2032. In other words, this will be the same time it takes to refuel a conventional combustion engine car.
With this partnership, StoreDot will adapt and apply its technology to the prototypes of Polestar’s EVs. If this pilot program becomes successful, the company will put its fast-charging batteries into Polestars by 2026.
StoreDot CEO, Dr. Doron Myersdorf, adds, “We are extremely excited to be entering into an agreement with Polestar, both as an investor and collaborator. Like us, Polestar is an extremely ambitious, innovative brand and is already proving to be pivotal in the mass adoption of electric vehicles, helping us move to a cleaner, zero-emissions world. We are looking forward to working together and we know that our technologies have huge potential to eradicate charging and range anxieties for future Polestar owners.”
