Pics and Vids / Re: Better Cells faster charging. Anyone want 6C?
« on: January 24, 2023, 03:13:23 PM »From Fully Charged comes a look at GAC Aion a Chinese car brand who is showing off their 3C cells and claiming their 6C cells are almost ready.
So the current standard charging rate is 1C which is why most EVs go from 0-85ish% in, you guessed it, 1 hour. Balance time and throttle back points aside.
If we take, in theory, a 20kWh pack with 6C cells and have a 120kw charging station then you could recharge in 6 minutes.
truly impressive, and the idea of faster charging times is certainly exciting. The GAC Aion's 6C cells, if they live up to their potential, could revolutionize the way we charge our EVs. The ability to recharge a 20kWh pack in just 6 minutes would be a game changer, making long distance travel much more convenient and feasible.
