Breakthrough EV battery pack could last 2 million kms, or 130 years of average driving, with 1,000km range: Goes into mass production 2024

2 million km battery

These incredibly high cycle numbers mean the battery could essentially last 2 million km before it starts to deteriorate. To put that into context, the average Australian car travels around 15,000 km per year so it would take 130 years worth of average driving to reach 2 million km mark.

Gotion High-Tech says the battery single-cell density is 240Wh/kg and that improvements in pack design have increased overall battery pack energy density to a point where 1000km range pack is possible with the highly durable chemistry.

Well, this does take EV batteries up to a new level not seen before. If that 18-minute fast charging is also true, then this is pretty well much the watershed moment for EV batteries.
