CATL has just unveiled its Naxtra sodium-ion battery, and it’s set to reshape everything we know about EVs and energy storage.
This new battery chemistry delivers 175 Wh/kg energy density, works from –40°C to +60°C, and lasts up to 10,000 cycles — with costs that are around half that of lithium-ion.
In this video, we’ll look at:
– How CATL’s new sodium battery actually works
– The real numbers on cost, range, and lifespan
– Why it’s safer than lithium and works in extreme cold or heat
– What this means for the EV industry and companies like BYD and Tesla
– And why this might finally make affordable EVs a global reality
