An extended-range hybrid, or EREV, has a larger battery pack than other hybrid cars and runs on electricity only, with its gasoline engine serving as a power bank to recharge the batteries when they run low. More Chinese consumers favour EREVs as they offer longer driving range than EVs and can cost less than gasoline cars.
Nearly 30 extended-range hybrid models will be equipped with the CATL Freevoy battery, Gao said.

In a significant leap for sustainable energy, South Korean company DEOGAM has unveiled a revolutionary battery technology that could reshape the landscape of power generation. DEOGAM’s new battery technology uses energy harvesting, a process that captures and converts ambient energy into usable power.
“World’s first” hybrid vehicle battery can “achieve a pure electric range of over 400 kilometers [250 miles] and 4C superfast charging, heralding a new era for high-capacity EREV [extended range electric vehicles] and PHEV [plug-in hybrid electric vehicles] batteries,” said the press release.
A new breakthrough in battery technology could revolutionize power generation across industries, according to an article published in Interesting Engineering. DEOGAM, an electric vehicle manufacturer based in South Korea, has developed a new battery technology that converts waste energy into usable power for extended range.
