A modified manufacturing process for electric vehicle batteries, developed by University of Michigan engineers, could enable high ranges and fast charging in cold weather, solving problems that are turning potential EV buyers away.
I help manage a fleet of Rivian vans for work. As amazing as they are, the subfreezing temps can make it really difficult to have an electric fleet. It’s worth it, but so many issues come up because of the slow charging in winter. I’m hopeful this type of engineering can be scaled and successful, because that’s one of the only issues I have with electric vehicles.
