CATL, the reigning champion of EV battery development, is not only the largest battery maker globally but is now also the fastest, thanks to its cutting-edge production lines at a brand-new battery base in China. With state-of-the-art assembly lines, CATL can churn out a battery cell every second and complete an entire EV battery pack in under three minutes.
CATL's dominance in the EV battery market is no coincidence. With over 30% market share, the company continues to push the boundaries of battery technology. Its revolutionary Qilin batteries, known for their exceptional energy density, are already powering ZEEKR EVs in China. But CATL's ambitions don't stop there. The company is even venturing into all-electric aviation, developing cells to support the skies.
CATL has also ventured into the world of EVs. Teaming up with Chinese tech giant Huawei, CATL has launched its own EV startup. Their lithium-iron-phosphate (LFP) cell, named ShenXing, boasts an impressive capability of recovering 400km (249 miles) of range in just a 10-minute fast charge.
As CATL expands its battery lineup, it is also expanding its global production footprint. Recently, the company inaugurated a new production base in China, equipped with assembly speeds that give it a competitive edge. This highly automated battery facility, located in Guizhou province, will be developed in two phases. The first phase, already completed, has an annual production capacity of 30 GWh and an automation rate of 95%. The entire process from material feeding to finished battery product now takes just one cell per second and an entire battery pack in a remarkable 2.5 minutes. Once phase two is finished, CATL's battery production capacity in Guizhou will double to an impressive 60 GWh.
