New silicon-anode technology from Group14 and Sionic delivers higher energy density, faster charging, and strong thermal stability, offering a practical path beyond graphite and positioning EV batteries for major near-term improvements.

A European repair shop says China-built LG batteries in Tesla vehicles may degrade faster and show higher resistance than U.S. or European packs. EV batteries overall are improving, but the findings highlight possible supplier performance gaps.

Hyundai has opened an $817M battery R&D campus in South Korea to speed next-generation EV and hybrid development. The site expands real-world testing, supports new cell designs, and strengthens Hyundai’s in-house battery strategy.

This article explains how used Tesla Model 3 batteries perform over time, highlighting why LFP packs retain significantly more capacity than NCA versions and offering guidance on identifying LFP-equipped cars.

LFP batteries are reshaping the U.S. EV market by cutting production costs and improving durability. Although fewer EVs currently use LFP, major investments from Ford, GM, and Rivian will bring more affordable models to American buyers soon.

New data from Recurrent shows modern EV batteries are highly reliable, with replacement rates dropping sharply across generations. Advanced thermal management, stronger warranties, and falling costs mean battery failures are now rare.

China’s Dongfeng aims to debut a solid-state EV in 2026, targeting 620 miles of range, improved safety, and ultra-fast charging. The announcement underscores China’s lead in next-generation EV battery development.

A new analysis of real-world data shows most EVs retain over 90% of their original driving range after three years. Brands vary, but improvements in battery tech, heat management and software keep degradation modest.
