An Overview of Vehicles Pushing Electrification to the Max
With the transportation industry accounting for at least one-third of global emissions, electrifying the world's massive fleet of vehicles will be a critical step toward finally achieving carbon neutrality. To achieve this goal, dozens of established automakers, EV startups and battery companies across the globe are working to pack as much energy as they can into an electric vehicle battery without impacting efficiency or increasing weight. Since electric vehicle performance is intrinsically tied to efficiency, there is a limit to how much energy can be packed into a battery before the extra weight cancels out the range improvements. Even so,…
