Samsung SDI launches large-capacity battery for life 2 times the current price

Driving range is a key factor in determining the development of electric vehicles, and the length of driving range depends mainly on battery performance. At the 2015 North American International Auto Show concluded recently, South Korean battery supplier Samsung SDI as the only Korean auto parts company exhibiting for the first time delivered the car battery to the auto show stage and exhibited a large-capacity battery (120AH). , can support electric vehicles driving 300 kilometers, equivalent to more than twice the cash Nissan Leaf wind.

According to Samsung SDI, the electric car equipped with this large-capacity battery is fully charged and can be used from Seoul, the capital of South Korea, to Daegu (in the southeast of South Korea, more than 200 kilometers from Seoul). Samsung SDI also demonstrated battery modules for plug-in hybrids and pure electric vehicles. Zheng Shien, head of the Samsung SDI large and medium-sized battery division, said: "In order to meet the needs of customers and markets, we have released a variety of new products."

Under the umbrella of Samsung Group, Samsung SDI was founded in 1970 and began developing lithium battery technology in 2000. According to news from the Korean automotive industry, Audi recently signed a battery supply contract with Samsung SDI. The Audi plug-in hybrid car Q7 e-tron Quattro will carry batteries produced by Samsung SDI. The vehicle's driving range in pure electric mode is 56 kilometers, and it will first land on the US market in 2016.


In addition to the above-mentioned car companies, Samsung SDI's customers include world-renowned car brands such as Volkswagen, Chrysler, and BMW. The BMW i3 and BMW i8 carry the batteries provided by Samsung SDI. As BMW i3 expanded its production scale, at the end of 2013, Samsung SDI added two battery production lines at its Ulsan, South Korea plant. In August 2014, Samsung SDI's automotive battery production base settled in Xian, Shaanxi, China. It is expected to be completed in October 2015 and officially put into production in 2016. Park Sung-jin, president of Samsung SDI, stated: "This signing is the bridgehead for Samsung SDI to enter China. China is the world's largest future electric vehicle market."

Samsung SDI believes that the current global oil price slump will not affect the electric vehicle industry vision. Kim Jang-wook, senior vice president of Samsung SDI, said that before 2020, the electric vehicle industry will always be affected by the laws of Europe, the United States and China, but it will not be affected by the economic changes such as oil price changes. In other words, due to the lack of charging facilities for electric vehicles and high selling prices, it will take several years for electric vehicles to truly develop. At this stage, it mainly depends on the government's promotion, while Europe, the United States, and China have been deterring due to factors such as environmental protection and energy. Push electric car. Therefore, Samsung SDI is full of confidence for the future of vehicle batteries, said Park Sung-chung: “We plan to increase the turnover of the automotive battery division to 1 trillion won (approximately RMB 6.1 billion) in 2015. The long-term goal is to This area has reached the top of the world."

It can be seen that although Korean automakers are not conspicuous in the field of electric vehicles, South Korean battery suppliers have a strong presence. In addition to Samsung SDI, LG Chemicals is also committed to the development of a new generation of high-capacity automotive batteries. The goal is to make the electric vehicle continue to drive 200 miles (about 322 kilometers) on a single charge. Once the electric vehicle's driving mileage exceeds 300 kilometers, it will greatly ease the consumers' "anxiety anxiety", and it is only then that the electric car is expected to truly achieve rapid development.
