These battery options used by Hyundai include cell-to-pack (CTP) and NP. CATL will work with Hyundai Beijing to cooperate and contribute to the development of new Hyundai automotive products in China.

CATL continues to upgrade its battery technologies and aims for a high driving range. The company has recently unveiled Shenxing Plus, the first-ever LFP battery with more than 1,000 kilometers of range and 4C fast charging.

The battery’s topological structure is optimized on top of module-free CTP 3.0 technology to enhance packing efficiency by 7 percent. This new battery tech exceeds the 200 Wh/kg threshold to 205Wh/kg.
