s’s main computing system hardware and system architecture have been optimized to further improve the efficiency of energy management.

Before, Tesla has applied for a patent for a new technology that will provide an electrolyte solution for a new metal lithium battery or an anodeless battery.

According to Tesla’s battery research partner Jeff Dahn (Jeff Dahn) and his team at Dalhousie University (Dalhousie University) announced the test results of a new type of battery, the new battery tested is a Lithium-ion batteries have next-generation “single crystal” NMC (nickel cobalt manganese) cathodes and a new advanced electrolyte. According to the test results, they believe that this battery can drive an electric car for more than 1 million miles (1.6 million kilometers) and be used in grid energy storage for at least 20 years, which is two to three times longer than Tesla’s existing battery. .

Improving battery energy density will help reduce the cost of electric vehicles and extend the driving range. Regarding the battery plan, there is still uncertainty about whether it will be put into production in the future. If it is put into production, it is also a big plus.

In addition, as new energy vehicles go to the countryside, more and more new energy vehicle companies are sinking into the market to expand channels. Tesla said it will add 4,000 super charging piles in the country this year. On June 14 this year, Tao Lin, vice president of Tesla’s external affairs, announced on Weibo Tesla’s plans to settle in 45 cities in China, including a large number of third-tier cities, including Jinhua, Shaoxing, Huizhou, Jiangmen, Xining, etc. .

It is not easy to enter the sinking market. The new infrastructure is complete, and the initial time and money investment are huge.

Current consumer groups of new energy vehicles such as Tesla are mostly middle-class. Consumer groups in the sinking market are more sensitive to prices. For new energy vehicles of two to three million yuan, the price threshold is high, and it is not so easy to capture the sinking market.
