The future of motoring is electric. It does not matter if we agree with it or not, the bright minds in the automotive arena are completely focused on perfecting EV mobility. A major milestone in this journey is now covered by NIO, a Chinese automaker which has now created a large solid-state battery that may give a range of up to 1000 km and quicker charging.
The jump from present-day batteries to a solid-state battery will be a leap as big as the one from old lead-acid batteries to lithium ion. NIO’s new solid-state battery tech combines several technologies, with a Nickel-Ultrarich Cathode and Si/C Composite Anode. This provides the new battery an energy density of 360 Wh/kg, which is higher than present-day batteries. In contrast, the batteries of a Tesla Model 3 have an energy density of 260Wh/kg. The higher energy density can help the batteries be more compact and liberate more room inside the vehicle.
NIO Announces 150 kWh Solid-State Batteries For 2022

NIO has officially announced today a groundbreaking upcoming battery option for its electric cars -
150 kWh battery packs, consisting of ultra-high energy density solid-state cells.
It s not yet available, but the Chinese company is confident that it will start customer deliveries of those new 150 kWh packs from the
fourth quarter of 2022 - that s almost two years from now.
NIO first started with a 70 kWh battery in 2018, then introduced 84 kWh in 2019 and most recently 100 kWh versions in late 2020. A cool thing is that those batteries were upgradable so the old cars could be equipped with higher capacity batteries.
