GM reveals more technical details of its Ultium battery packs
GM has big plans to release as many as 30 new EV models by 2025—the company claims that, by 2035, its only ICE vehicles will be heavy-duty trucks. The new Ultium battery system is at the heart of GM’s electrification strategy.
GM says the Ultium system delivers a pack-level cost close to the magic number of $100 per kWh—a tenth of the cost of the batteries that powered the 2010 Volt, and a price point that will finally make selling EVs a profitable proposition.
The heart of the Ultium system is a pouch-type lithium-ion cell, 23 x 4 x 0.4 inches in size, weighing about 3 pounds, with a gross energy capacity of 0.37 kWh. Each Ultium pack will have a usable capacity between 50 kWh (144 cells) and 200 kWh (576 cells), enabling up to 450 miles of range.
