M3P Battery
CATL's M3P battery expected to be installed in Tesla models, report says
CATL is still in the process of developing and validating the M3P battery with Tesla, and the exact timing of the installation is not yet clear, according to local media.
Tesla reportedly to launch new China-made Model 3 with CATL's M3P batteries across lineup
Due to the lower cost of CATL's M3P batteries, both Model 3 and Model Y have room for price reduction after using the new packs, according to local media.
CATL to supply M3P batteries to Tesla in Q4 for Model Y, report says
The Model Y with a 72-kWh battery pack will first use CATL's M3P batteries, which will be available early next year, according to local media.
CATL's M3P battery to be put into use next year, says chief scientist
The M3P battery is based on a new material system developed by CATL and has a higher energy density than LFP batteries and a lower cost than ternary batteries.
CATL says it's developing M3P battery, different from LMFP battery
This follows reports that CATL plans to mass-produce LMFP battery, which its chairman mentioned in February as the M3P battery, within this year.
CATL said to mass produce LMFP batteries within this year
The battery's energy density is 15-20 percent higher than that of lithium iron phosphate batteries, but there is little difference in the material costs, according to local media.
