Why is Huawei pursuing solid-state battery development?

By pursuing solid-state battery development, Huawei joins a growing list of global automakers and tech companies such as BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Volkswagen, and BYD, all racing to unlock safer, lighter, and faster-charging batteries to transform the future of electric mobility.

Will Huawei's new lithium-ion battery disrupt the booming solid-state battery sector?

This recent patent application, reported by CarNewsChina, signals Huawei’s aim to disrupt the booming solid-state battery sector. The patent details a battery with an energy density of 400 to 500 Wh/kg, potentially tripling that of standard lithium-ion cells. Huawei’s tech tackles a key challenge: electrochemical stability.

How many miles can a Huawei battery charge?

Huawei promises that its battery technology could deliver around 1,864 miles of range and achieve a 10% to 80% charge in under five minutes.

Does Huawei have a 3,000-kilometre range and 5-minute charging range?

While Huawei’s claims of a 3,000-kilometre range and five-minute charging have generated widespread attention, experts warn that such figures remain theoretical and would require charging infrastructure that is not yet commercially available.

Should Huawei be able to nail a 400 Wh/kg energy density?

Should Huawei be able to nail energy densities between 400 and 500 Wh/kg, it would be far better placed producing smaller packs that can still offer an impressive range without the need for enormous, expensive batteries.
