Lithium metal batteries promise dramatically higher energy density than today’s lithium-ion systems, yet their widespread use remains limited by unstable lithium deposition, dendrite growth, and rapid ...
A 2025 Tesla Model Y owner was left reeling after a routine pothole encounter resulted in a "catastrophic" high-voltage battery failure and a denied warranty claim.
A family’s trip turned into a highway survival story after their Mach-E’s high-voltage battery hit a "critical health floor" ...
A recent study has thrown light on a spike in electric vehicle (EV) battery failures after roughly 8 years of use. This discovery has implications for EV owners, and also presents the question of how ...
Ford Motor is recalling more than 270,000 cars over potential battery failure that could cause a loss of power, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). According to a ...
While it's true that car batteries have a low tolerance for freezing temperatures, they tend to fail more quickly in hot weather. Much like how lithium-ion EV batteries work best when it's neither too ...
A rechargeable battery based on technology pioneered by Thomas Edison may finally get its due. But while the famous inventor envisioned nickel-iron batteries powering the automobile industry over a ...
A car battery deteriorates in use and its life seldom exceeds four years. When new, its voltage may drop to only 2V while cranking the engine. As the battery ages, its internal impedance increases and ...
(Nanowerk News) New research from Argonne National Laboratory and the UChicago Pritzker School of Molecular Engineering (UChicago PME) has solved a major battery mystery that has led to capacity ...
