A NIO power charging station.
It took two and a half years but it’s finally here. Chinese electric vehicle automaker NIO has implemented a 150 kWh solid-state battery pack in its cars. The solid-state pack is supplied by WeLion and will debut on the upcoming ES6 SUV. Clients in China will be able to select the energy-dense pack as early as this month.
This is according to a report by electrek published this Friday.
The 150 kWh pack features solid-state battery cells configured to the same design of its current lithium-ion cells but can deliver 1,000 km (620 miles) of range on a single charge.
The battery was delayed for such a long time that we were beginning to think it would not happen. However, this past May NIO made a filing with China’s Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (CMIIT) stating ambitious plans to sell three existing EV models with expanded battery capabilities provided by solid-state battery developer WeLion.
