What is CATL M3P battery chemistry?

Last summer, we told our readers about a new battery chemistry from CATL, the world’s largest maker of lithium-ion batteries. Called M3P, the new batteries are said to be up to 15% more energy dense than LFP batteries, which would allow cars like the Tesla Model 3 to have a range in excess of 400 miles.

When will CATL's M3P batteries be available?

At the 2022 World EV & ES Battery Conference in China, CATL chief scientist Wu Kai announced that the M3P batteries have already reached volume production and will hit the market in 2023. CATL chairman Robin Zeng also briefly mentioned the M3P batteries.

Is CATL ready to start mass production of M3P batteries?

Reuters reported last week that CATL is now ready to begin mass production of its M3P batteries. They will have greater energy density and perform better than lithium-iron phosphate (LFP) batteries and be less expensive than nickel- and cobalt-based batteries, Zeng Yuqun told an online investor briefing on Friday.

Are CATL M3P batteries the same as Lmfp batteries?

CATL has confirmed the production of its M3P batteries, which vary from Lithium Manganese Iron Phosphate (LMFP) cells. Although the chemistry may be similar, CATL has stated that the M3P batteries are not the same as LMFP batteries.

Is CATL developing M3P batteries with Tesla?

CNEVPost says CATL is in the process of developing and validating its M3P batteries with Tesla. Detailed analysis indicates that M3P brings better range that Iron LFP batteries for similar cost and 15% lower cost than nickel batteries.

What are the cathode materials of CATL M3P battery?

The cathode materials of the CATL M3P battery are the ternary materials of the phosphate system doped with magnesium, zinc, aluminum and other metal elements, and the lithium manganese iron phosphate material, which are used to improve the charge discharge capacity and cycle stability of the lithium manganese iron phosphate battery.
