Chery's All-Solid-State Battery to Exceed 1,500 km Range, Aiming for Vehicle Integration in 2027

On March 14, the Yichang Municipal People's Government and the Management Committee of Yichang High-tech Zone formally signed a cooperation agreement with Guangdong Brunp Recycling Technology Co., Ltd. Brunp Recycling will deploy new-generation lithium battery material projects, such as iron phosphate, in Yichang City, Hubei Province, marking a new phase of in-depth collaboration between the two parties in the field of new energy battery materials and recycling. Previously, Brunp Recycling had already invested in constructing a full-chain integrated industrial park in Yichang.

On March 18, the Chairman of Chery Automobile stated that Chery's solid-state battery pilot production line has developed cells with different energy density levels and is currently conducting extensive rigorous testing. Chery's future investment in all-solid-state batteries will have no upper limit. It is reported that Chery's Rhino Battery S series includes a 60Ah, 400Wh/kg solid-state battery utilizing a sulfide-based solid electrolyte system and high-nickel ternary cathode materials; and a 600Wh/kg solid-state battery using an in-situ polymerization solid electrolyte system and lithium-rich manganese-based cathode materials, achieving a range of over 1500+ km.
