Running 500km On One Charge
Korean Researchers Develop Battery Material that Can Double EVs’ Driving Distance
A team of Korean scientists succeeded in developing silicon oxide nano powder, which is a cathode material for lithium ion batteries which can double the capacities of electric car batteries. Accordingly, the new material will double electric vehicles’ travel distances. When the material are mass-produced starting next January, electric vehicles powered by this material will be able to run 500km on one charge.
