1. tesla hasnt been making batteries 5 years. 2. Manganese will replace the cobalt, but it doesn't double the capacity or reduce weight. 3. on battery day three years ago the major upgrade promised was SILICON cathodes. 4. You also misunderstand LiFePo4 which likes topped to 100% without damaging the cells like L-ion batteries. Lithium ions dont like discharged past 10% or charged past 90%. Repeated over/undercharging damages them and you have LESS RANGE than LiFePo4 because of that. The energy density numbers are deceptive for that reason.
I'm waiting Tesla to bring LFP based batteries to AWD long-range 3 and Y in Europe. When that happens, I'm in and my Toyota Hybrid will find a new home. 70 kWh battery would be sufficient. It would be between Standard range 60 and long-range 77, but with possibility to charge to 100%, which would make it more interesting for me than the 77kWh NCA battery, and also much more safe.
I like how every statement of fact was attributed to who said it. Raises it from opinion fluff to somethng to take to the bank. This looks like the battery I'll buy for my house when I go off grid in 5 years.
IMO, if there's one thing that can truly disrupt the entire automobile industry, that would be the use of dry electrode technology for both the anode and cathode. Normal cathode and anode production uses large amounts of solvent and critically, tremendous amounts of energy. Once Tesla's battery division finally gets the dry cathode process up and running, we'll see production efficiency explode because of the much much lower energy consumption required for making dry electrodes.
Did i miss something? I am wondering how many charge / discharge cycles this battery claims to have. We also need a battery that will outlast the vehicle itself.

I dont know bud. Sort of a staple for alot of different businesses or products is "planned obsolescence" that is how they keep dinging your wallet over and over again. But im with ya...it would be nice. I read somewhere that it would cost $20k or so to replace the battery on a tesla.
KW or Watts: Power. KWh (kilowatt hour) or Wh (watt hour): Energy. Very important distinction. Confusing when you mix them up.
@5:30 regardless of the chemistry, for a 120kWh battery pack to give a 1,000km range, the car would use 120Wh/km. This is about the efficiciency of the car, not the energy density of the battery. The rest of the video suggests that it is the energy density that has improved which means you potentially could get a 200kWh battery in the space and/or weight of a conventional 120kWh battery pack. To put it another way, if a car uses 200Wh/km, it will need 200kWh of battery power to travel 1,000km. This technology may very well make that small, light, and affordable, but it's still a 200kWh battery.
LFP is great today. LMFP is moving up market (higher performance) and will eat NMC/NCA market share. SIB is moving down market for lowest $/kWh.
Thanks for another great video. Just wanted to send you positives vibes and hope for some good news on the health side soon!!!

EV charging speeds need to be 10 minutes or less, in order to get apartment dwellers to buy EVs.
GM’s Ultium packs are chemistry and cell agnostic. Built also modularly so that you don’t have to scrap the whole pack if a few cells go out.
This fits nicely into mining nodules from the sea bottom. They are called Manganese nodules because this is the main (but not the only) mineral in these nodules.
Only real new battery existing in EV market now is Li's Auto car. Chinese bloggers have test-driven it. As the auto company claims 1000 km range CLTC on 140 kw 3rd gen CLTC battery. The real driven test until car sudden died out is 930 km in China.

RETIRED, 79, FREEDOM, USAF, VFW. THANK VIKING, HOPE MY 2024 CYBER TRUCK HAS LMFP., 400 MILE RANGE, 140 KWH.
L(M)FP indeed is a game changer and will soon take over from NCM/NCA chemistry. Higher energy density than LFP, lower fore risk than NCM, more cycle life than NCM/NCA and similar low cost as LFP.
BYD has started selling cars with Sodium Battery, which is cheaper and more friendly to the environment. It has less energy density, but fine for shorter range city driving.
Sam, increased energy density means a battery of a particular size and weight will store more kWh, not less. A smaller battery can store the same charge as today' large and heavy packs. Lower weight and increased kWh capacity will result in increased range.

Great comment ty
240 Wh/kg is nothing exceptional, on par with current NMC. CATL is already achieving up to 500 Wh/kg... so, I don't see Gotion taking any future market... except if production cost is really really low. And : NO, I don't believe that a 5% lower cost will make Gotion capable to compete for the battery crown. I am much more believing that the winner will be the company achieving the highest energy density, because in the end, its all about mass production bringing costs down... Today the podium for the highest energy density on a production line goes to : CATL ! Good luck to Gotion, they will need some.
The range offered by a battery is not to do with its chemistry but it’s capacity in kWh and the efficiency of the vehicle to which it is fitted. For example the advert for the battery boasts 1000km (600 miles) for a 140kWh battery. This equates to about 4.28 miles per kWh which is about what Tesla model 3 does (Tesla offers about 315 miles for 78kWh). The ‘chemistry’ is, however, responsible for longevity (number of charge/discharge cycles), rate of charging and discharging (maximum power output) and fire safety.

According to Gotion Hitech, its LMFP is a 2 million km battery. It says: "Astroinno L600 LMFP cell achieves 240 Wh/kg in gravimetric energy density and 525Wh/L for volumetric energy density. It can achieve more than 4,000 cycles at room temperature and 1800 cycles at high temperature, easily achieves 18 minutes of fast charging, and passes all safety tests." From what Gotion is saying, its LMFP is similar to LFP in terms of cycle life, but it degrades faster in heat, so it will need better thermal management than LFP, but it degrades slower than NMC and NCA, so definitely an improvement in the lifespan compared to most Western EVs. With the way that battery prices are falling, having to replace the battery in 12-15 years may not be nearly as expensive has you think, but it is definitely better to have a battery that is designed to outlast the life of the car. I think that the standard lifespan of the new LFP and LMFP EVs is going to be over 500k miles, since their motors and batteries last so long and they require so little maintenance. It wouldn't surprise me if the Aptera becomes a million mile vehicle, since its carbon body will never rust, and it is modular, so its major components can be easily replaced. If a motor fails, you just replace the wheel. I can't wait for more EVs to be designed like the Aptera.

240 wh/kg is the same as Tesla NCA 2170s from 2018. It is impressive for a low cost battery, but it isn't an energy density that is unattainable by current high nickel battery chemistries. This is a tech for cheaper high volume products, which is more disruptive, but it isn't quite game changing for me.

By high performance, I assume you mean more capacity for same weight and volume. I personally think this concern is a bit overblown. The real reason people have so much range anxiety is not because their car can store 200 miles per full charge instead of 400 miles. It is mainly because they don't have an EV charging network similar to gas stations, and because the charge time takes much longer than filling gas.
I was thinking the Nickle, Cobalt are the primary costs of NMC batteries, with Lithium being the runner up? I could be wrong.
I, personally, see more in iliquid battery tech. It's kinda fascinating, you can store electric charge in drum.
If Iron Phosphate is such a good battery, then why is the warranty shorter for those batteries in Tesla? 100,000 miles for LFP vs 120000 for NCA.... Something doesn't add up. We are told these batteries will last longer, yet the warranty is shorter.... Things that should make you go hmmmm If all the marketing lined up with the warranty it might be more believable. If these batteries are so great then let's see a 200,000 mile warranty on them. Why not? We are told they are just that good.

Let's be clear here. A kWh is a kWh as far as I know. Battery chemestry cannot give you significantly more range per kWh I'm assuming. What it can do is make the battery pack significanly lighter to allow for more range that way. Whether that makes enough of a difference to result in a normal car that can do 500-600mk with a 50kWh battery? Seems a little unlikely but it would be great. What would be cool enough if if it would allow 500-600km of range in the same space of a battery that would previously allow only 300-400km of rqnge. That would be game changing already.

Also, it makes it easier to make fun of the idiots who obsess over range: 1000km is over 600 miles, even if you are among the rare people who need to drive 60 miles each day that means you only need to charge once every ten days. In the unlikely case if you had to do a long road trip and lived in Germany where you can drive 150mph on autobahns so it would take "only" four hours to empty the battery, driving at high speeds like that is extremely stressing and four hours is long enough that your passengers will force you to stop for a break even if you want to risk getting a heart attack from sitting so long. Anyone who is not driving a long haul semi but complains that EVs do not have enough range for their daily driving is either lying, doing some kind of illegal job like smuggling drugs through back roads so they can't stop at chargers because they have cameras, or is some kind of special case that applies to less than one person in a million and therefore irrelevant to any discussion about regular cars and drivers.

On my way back from commifornia I notice a Tesla sitting on the side of the road with the emergency lights on. It made me think, when you accidently run out of gas you can just hike over to nearest gas station and buy a gallon of gas to be able to drive back to the gas station. What do you do if your electric car runs out of juice?????🤔

Electric Viking…I catch your video’s almost routinely on my drive too and from work. I work in finance and your honest information is so helpful. As battery tech is often something you discuss have you ever looked into the little US comapny called Amprius? They are using a silicon/Carbon v combination to store the lithium and the carbon/silicon nano tubes prevent the problematic expansion that silicon alone has in batteries? Heard about it from Munro Live and was curious your thoughts.
How exciting, thanks for sharing about this new battery technology!

LFP batteries by CATL expected life 1,200,000 miles. What is the expected life in miles of the LFPM? Concerning battery life in million mile Plus range, that eliminates consumer fear of expensive battery replacement. Also, for high use cases such as police cars and Uber, the life cycle cost of EVs is about $100,000 cheaper over 12 years including purchase price, fuel and maintenance (12 year life of the car, not 4 years for gas).
Lithium Ion, Manganese, Phosphate... LMFP Awesome energy density aside that's helluva mouthful! Why don't they just cal it LMP????
I'll believe it when I see it. The 4680 was meant to be a breakthrough battery. turns out it's pretty crap. same if not more weight due to thicker walls, less energy dense, higher cobalt.
It won’t be long and there will be another Battery Breakthrough. This is Good. A Cheaper higher density Battery will be needed to achieve this zero emissions goal.
Remember at Tesla Investor Day they said motors would come down to $1000 and rare earth minerals would be eliminated. So there is a lot more in the secret sauce from Tesla to go from a motor costing $2500 down to $1000 than what was mentioned here.
LFP uses more lithium than ternary cells but it’s it’s in a form that’s significantly cheaper to refine.
Hey Dave; yes hydrogen can it then becomes a question how we get it. There are a number of claimed breakthroughs; but no one is producing very much green hydrogen. There is some yellow being made which is a byproduct of industrial functions. Honestly if this is so critical - we should be doing massive carpooling now and significantly cut CO2 Now while also saving time and money; we aren't. Big Green advocates are flying around in private jets, not doing virtual presentations - So I conclude this isn't a crisis it is a sales pitch.
love it hope they put this in the refresh
Follow RC car tech and they usually have the new stuff out on tracks several years before auto manufactures.
If you are going to charge a battery from 10 to 80% in 8 minutes, it must be a thicker cable. The heat in the cable, etc. can be a problem. I suspect
There are already Korean cars that claim to be able to charge from 10 to 80% in 18 minutes. But of course very fast chargers are required for that and the battery is heated
Informative video
Sounds fantastic, but the long-term environmental impact still needs to be considered. We still need to look at the environmental issues where current-generation battery packs have failed. Are the car makers going to support the repair of the batteries so they are not replaced after minor damage to the pack? What is the CO2 hit for manufacturing? Support for retrofitting new technology packs to existing electric cars to reduce the CO2 of the manufacturer of the car itself and to allower lower income people to use electric vehicles? Proper support for recycling where repair is not viable or possible or batteries become obsolete. Unfortunately, I do not trust car makers to do any of the above.
F1 have been using Lip4 batteries since energy recovery systems were used
Maybe, I believe, battery of the century, best battery ever, could be... you never know. Why are almost al YT titles click-bait now? On nearly every topic.

The claim was based on its dimensional size not the Wh/kg or Wh/litre. The Maxwell dry coating was going to improve to about 300Wh/kg from ~250Wh/kg then hopefully to 500Wh/kg which is 100% improvement or x2 better.

@@Yanquetino I think Tesla bought Maxwell because they evaluated its batteries. That gave credence to Maxwell's claim. I think Tesla would have extensively tested the prototype dry electrode batteries before investing. Musk said something like he wasn't interested in people telling Tesla that they had better batteries, he wanted battery prototypes to test. I had the same questions when I first saw the X5 as to what they meant. At the time I concluded that they meant size because the new battery was based on the Maxwell dry coating method. And when you calculate at the volume of the 4680 cells vs the old you could see they would have ~5X the energy due to volume and slight increase of Wh/Litre (~250 to ~300). I'm too lazy to calculate now but you can (at the time I did rough calculations). I think you can find evaluations of the 4680 vs 2170 on KZread telling all the maths. People will have tested and worked out the Wh/kg and compared. I think the problem Tesla battery advancements have been slow has been the consistency of mass production. But that is typical in mass manufacturing. The good news is they are constantly improving. Personally I think Musk should create a competition within the USA (or world) universities to develop the best batteries to speed things up.

the main concern with china is that their economy is collapsing, factories won't hire anyone over 35, and the young generation doesn't want to work. then you have the immanent demographic collapse, two entire provinces bankrupt, and the other provinces are having to stop paying salaries sometimes to public servants or pay very late (months late in some cases) just to make interest payments on their loans. The more the world decouples from china the worse things are economically for china. So china isn't going to have a monopoly over anything any time soon. Other countries have the rare earths the world economy needs now, so that card is can't be played for them anymore. Knowing this from a business pov is good intel. That means you can de-risk your business and manufacturing ventures to something that will not cause your company to lose large sums of money because of manufacturing delays.

Station them at windows. Then you get power windows. Although the software seems to be needing an upgrade.
Now it is perhaps not so common to have very fast chargers. Not even in Norway. There is a normal speed of 50 kW on many chargers. Surely at least 230 kw is needed for it to be as little as 18 minutes? maybe it is also required that the car has a 600 V system?
One possible factor here is that some of the Chinese companies are likely to have used some of Tesla's patents. If they did then Tesla would be allowed to use their tech as well on anything that Tesla falls behind on.

well - any battery pack can be stuffed with an alternate cell type when and as new chemistry and types become available. (this is a reason many manufacturers stick with some "standard" unitary cell size (whether hard or soft cell). Still waiting for an affordable and energy dense Iron - Aluminium, Salt water battery (yes REDOX limits exist - ie. this is pretty well understood, and the hype usually falls flat - on the cycle limit.) - but having a battery made from the most common elements on earth is incredibly compelling.... waiting. (I currently own a whole load of LFP >12kWh- as well as significant weights of LNMC.. ready for any future advances.) Industry makes the most money by releasing an acceptable device and mass manufacturing "the hell out of it" while the enthusiasm for said device lasts, consumers are fickle - "Even" Teslas are starting to look like rows of uniform uglly frogs rolling down the street in "endless" queues. NB Aqueous electrolytes are thermally limited - ie, need a heated Garage in Canada, Alaska and Northern Europe. Ideal for temperate and Tropical zones. Anyone can put LFP cells in their packs - but for convectional manufacturers, finishing off manufacturing batches is important, so as to not burn "in place" contracts - future supply relies on industry good will, not everyone can simply just go out and buy an entire

LMFP. OK, I thought it was Solid State that was going to be the game changer? What about service life and recycling stewardship? 18 minutes recharging would depend on the capacity of the battery I would have thought, and something that seems to be overlooked here; Fermi Gap. All battery tech reaches a buffer sooner or later. Interesting that we highlight a battery advantage in terms that it is less likely to catch fire! Good grief.
