The advantages of mainland new energy lithium batteries are being surpassed by Japan?
Toyota's new announcement announces that it has successfully overcome the bottleneck of solid-state batteries: 10 minutes of charging, you can last 1500 kilometers, which is equivalent to running from Shanghai to Changchun!
Solid-state batteries have always been regarded as the "optimal solution" to solve the shortcomings of new energy vehicles. In media reports, Toyota has been resolutely rejecting vehicle electrification in public, but it has secretly laid out solid-state batteries and suddenly released "big moves". It is even claimed that mass production will be achieved as soon as 2027.
Therefore, the Japanese media proudly threatened: Toyota does not shoot, and as soon as it makes a move, China's new energy advantages will disappear!
Verbal criticism, secretly vigorous, Japan wants to rely on it to counterattack?
As we all know, in the era of fuel vehicles, the global automobile market has been firmly occupied by countries such as Japan, Germany and the United States, and the mainland cannot even drink soup.
However, with the development of global new energy, we have successfully grasped this opportunity and achieved the backwardness of the automotive field in only 10 years. Not only can it be evenly matched with Tesla in the United States, but the market share of domestic new energy vehicles has also reached 75%.
Seeing the continuous rise of mainland automobile exports, Audi, Volkswagen and other German and American car companies were extremely red-eyed, and directly issued a "death order" internally, announcing that by 2030, a single fuel vehicle will not be rebuilt, and it is bound to catch up with the mainland.
On the other hand, Japanese car companies such as Toyota, under the impact of mainland new energy, will not sell more than a fraction of BYD's sales in China in 2022. In order to maintain the status of fuel vehicles, during the G7 summit in May this year, Toyota even directly waved the "banner" of resisting electrification, attracting Suzuki, Mazda and other Japanese car companies to follow.
However, Japanese car companies are very tough in their mouths and honest in their actions. On the bright side, through the "resistance" to divert attention, secretly began to lay out the next generation of power development direction - solid-state batteries. From the number of publicly disclosed solid-state battery patents, Japanese companies have monopolized the top 3, of which Toyota ranks first with more than 1,300 patents.
The Japanese media is quite proud of Toyota's move "dark Chen Cang", and has issued 80 reports in the past 4 years, treating solid-state batteries as a "big move" against China, and even threatening: When Toyota's solid-state batteries are popularized, it is the day when China's proud new energy industry is crushed.
Tiger mouth for food, China's new energy status is urgent?
Data show that solid-state batteries can solve the three major technical problems of electric vehicles in the era of lithium batteries, which are easy to catch fire, short battery life and difficult to charge, so they are regarded as the key to the future iteration of new energy.
Japanese companies started early in the research and development of solid-state batteries, and now Toyota announced a breakthrough, and Professor Ouyang of Tsinghua issued an appeal: China should have a sense of crisis!
People's Daily's eight-character warning of "recognize the situation and give up illusions" is still in the ears, although the mainland is still the industry leader in the field of new energy, but there are precedents in the field of biosciences before, and it has to be prevented.
Power battery marathon, who wins is really not certain
The mainland's development in the field of solid-state batteries can also be described as a strong enemy, but the mainland has never lacked the ability to compete against the trend, not to mention that the mainland has won at the starting line.
At the beginning of 2021, GAC AION officially released a new power battery preview. Officials said that the new battery uses graphene technology, supports super fast charging, can be charged to 80% in 8 minutes, and can achieve a pure battery life of 1000km.
Although Japan is currently gaining momentum in research and development and patents, the mainland has long begun to lay out solid-state power battery research, according to public data, the continent has published the world's first number of articles in scientific journals. Chinese enterprises led by CATL and BYD accounted for more than 50% of the global power battery market in the first quarter, proving their strong strength.
In addition, the mainland has the world's largest new energy vehicle market, in the future in the industrialization of solid-state batteries, who is not necessarily dead, solid-state battery hegemony has just begun!
