Let us remind you that such batteries will not only be safer, lighter and more resistant to extreme temperatures, but will also make it possible to increase the charge storage density by 40% and allow it to be accepted faster at express charging stations. Samsung SDI confirmed not only its intentions to build joint ventures with Stellantis and General Motors in the United States for the production of traction batteries, but also a completely owned similar enterprise. Samsung SDI has no doubts about the electric vehicle market's ability to continue its expansion.
