Chinese Firm Makes 621-Mile EV Battery for All-Weather Use

Greater Bay Technology, a Chinese firm, claims that its new EV battery is able to function in any climate. According to Bloomberg, a battery known as the Phoenix cell employs superconductive substances and thermal control to elevate temperatures from below zero to a typical ambient temperature in under five minutes. Since EV batteries were first launched, they have been plagued with high temperatures. Electric vehicle batteries become less effective as the temperature drops to under 32ºF (0ºC) during charging, creating challenges for vehicle owners who actually rely on the range provided by the vehicles.
