In our daily life, after a certain period of time, the charging ability of our mobile phone battery will decline, and so will the electric car, because at this stage, the batteries of electric cars are mainly lithium batteries, just like mobile phone batteries.

When the battery drops to a certain extent, it needs to be replaced, but if it is an electric car, it is not a simple matter and the cost is not low.

For this reason, Tesla recently announced a technology under development, namely a long-life lithium battery module. This research and development plan began in April, 20 19. Tesla and Dalhousie University in Canada jointly developed and applied for a patent at the same time.

This brand-new lithium battery module is claimed to have a service life of 1.6 million kilometers. At present, the highest level battery module provided by Tesla is 100kWh, and its service life is between 1000-2000 times. However, after 1000 times of charging, the newly developed lithium battery module still maintains the original 95% continuous power at 4.

Such a long battery life is a qualitative improvement for electric vehicles, because the most important indicators of electric vehicles are battery life and endurance.

For the future development trend of electric vehicles, solid-state batteries are more recognized as the medium of charging, but the CEO of Tesla? Elon musk doesn't think so. He believes that the development of lithium-ion batteries has not yet reached the limit, and there are still many possibilities.
