Bosch has announced a new battery technology for electric vehicles (EVs), based on solid-state cells, which could double their driving range while lowering costs and is likely to be production-ready in as little as five years. The recent acquisition of U.S. start-up Seeo Inc. – based near Silicon Valley – will make this possible.
As well as its own experience in the area of battery technology, Bosch now has crucial know-how in innovative solid-state cells for lithium batteries, along with exclusive patents.
“Bosch is using its knowledge and considerable financial resources to achieve a breakthrough for electromobility,” says Dr. Volkmar Denner, the firm’s chairman of the board.
