EV makers are scouting for batteries that charge faster, drive further and last longer. Batteries must also become cheaper and better available to push EVs deeper into the mass market—and perhaps into new niches. This Automotive World report investigates the materials and manufacturing techniques that could take things to the next level.
In this report:
- Executive summary
- EV battery production has room for improvement
- Cyclical supply chains are the future for EV battery recycling
