This column presents an in-depth analysis of the LFP 161Ah prismatic flat hard-shell LFP battery produced by CATL, a leading Chinese battery manufacturer and a leader in the global EV battery market.
This battery has proven its performance and reliability in major EV models including the Tesla Model 3.
This study is based on the paper "Cell Disassembly and Characterization of an Automotive Prismatic LFP Battery" by Sandro Stock et al. (Electrochimica Acta, Volume 471, 2023, 143341), and aims to comprehensively summarize and interpret the analysis results of that paper to reveal the technical characteristics of CATL LFP batteries.
