From Torque News.

In an exciting development for electric vehicle (EV) enthusiasts, Mercedes-Benz partner ProLogium has unveiled a groundbreaking solid-state battery design that can increase a Tesla Model Y’s range to 600 miles on a charge.

The new technology, known as Large-Footprint Lithium Ceramic Battery (LLCB), promises to double the volumetric energy density of current electric vehicle packs, offering significant improvements in range, weight reduction, and sustainability. ProLogium aims to sample the LLCB solid-state battery cells with original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) by the end of this year, opening up new possibilities for EVs like the Tesla Model Y.

The implications of the LLCB battery design are far-reaching. For instance, a Tesla Model Y LR, currently powered by 2170 cells, could potentially achieve an astounding 79% increase in range. With the incorporation of LLCB cells, the Model Y would be capable of traveling nearly 600 miles on a single charge, without requiring a larger battery pack footprint. The lighter weight of the hypothetical ProLogium battery would not only contribute to improved vehicle efficiency but also lead to reduced energy consumption.
