A solid-state prototype from VW's US partner QuantumScape Corp. "significantly exceeded" industry targets in recent tests, the carmaker said Wednesday in a statement.
During tests by VW's battery unit PowerCo over several months, the cell saw only 5% storage capacity loss after more than 1,000 charging cycles, the equivalent of 500,000 kilometres on the road. VW said industry targets for this development phase are 700 charging cycles and a maximum loss of 20% capacity.
"These are very encouraging results," PowerCo head Frank Blome was quoted as saying.
