There are numerous lithium-ion battery chemistries out there, but in the electric car world, you really need to know about LFP, short for lithium ferro-phosphate or lithium iron phosphate. Already popular for EVs in other parts of the world, LFP is coming to the United States and will compete with the more common NMC chemistry, which stands for nickel manganese cobalt. Which kind of battery do you want for your next electric vehicle? We’ll detail the pros and cons of each battery technology to help you decide.
