According to industry insiders, Hyundai Motor Group will apply the CTP technology obtained from CATL to new electric vehicles as early as next year, and it is expected to be installed in electric vehicles such as Kia Ray.

It is understood that this is the first time that a modern automobile has adopted CTP technology. Industry insiders further pointed out that CTP technology is based on batteries from CATL, which means that electric vehicles applying this technology must use batteries from CATL. Hyundai's adoption of CTP technology means that its use of CATL batteries will increase.

It is worth mentioning that Hyundai Motor Group will use nickel-based batteries, not the familiar lithium iron phosphate batteries (LFP).

CATL’s CTP technology has reached its third generation, and is officially called Kirin battery. CATL said that under the same chemical system and the same battery pack size, the power of CTP 3.0 is higher than that of Tesla’s 4680 battery. 13%. In addition, Hyundai Motor Group plans to import more batteries from Chinese battery suppliers for use in models sold in South Korea.
