Chinese manufacturer, Contemporary Amperex Technology Limited (CATL), has just taken a huge leap forward with its latest creation, the impressive “ShenXing Super Fast Charging Battery”.

CATL, recognized for its association with Tesla or Polestar and its leadership in the battery industry, has its definitive weapon ready to position itself at the top of this competitive sector. The ShenXing is your answer, marking a significant advance in terms of performance and technology.

This innovation, based on lithium ion phosphate (LFP), is redefining the rules of the game. The battery, which is expected to enter mass production at the end of the year or beginning of 2024, is positioned as a milestone in the search for shorter charging times and longer ranges.

Its ability to support 4C charging, i.e. four times its rated charging capacity, is simply a breakthrough. This revolutionary feature means that in 15 minutes, it can be fully recharged. Even a light 10-minute charge already provides an impressive range of 400 kilometers.

An even more impressive aspect of the ShenXing battery is its choice of lithium ion phosphate (LFP) as the main material. While this compound may have a slightly lower energy density than some more traditional batteries, its performance in low temperature conditions is simply outstanding.

It can reach an astonishing 80% charge in just 30 minutes, even when temperatures drop to -10 degree levels. This means users can enjoy effective charging even in extremely cold weather, eliminating one of the common concerns associated with electric vehicles.

Autonomy is the other strong point of this revolutionary battery, with a maximum range of 700 kilometers on a full charge.
