800V and 400V are exactly the same thing at cell level.
Higher charge current is due to to better cooled pack and better chemistry , not voltage.This kind of cell will make the conversion from ICE a forgone conclusion.
For most applications yes. But there is still a demographic that wants vehicles that satisfy 100% of use cases, not 95%. I have two EVs and an Expedition. I can’t began to tell you how often I hear about limited towing range from people that tow short distances once or or twice per year. You would think they’re excited about the Ram w/ range extender. But then they bitch about the 3.6L generator and price, even though the price hasn’t been announced.
my Golf can also beat AMG mercedes (if the mercedes only goes about 30 kmh)
I’m looking to order one (in Europe). How can I tell if it will be equipped with BYD or CATL? Can I tell by the VIN or all rwd Ys that come from Berlin have the BYD battery nowadays?
