A leap forward in power battery technology
In 2025, China’s new energy vehicle industry has made significant
breakthroughs in the field of power battery technology, marking the rapid development of the industry. CATL recently announced that its all-solid-state battery research and development has entered the pre-production stage. This technological advancement has increased the battery’s energy density by more than 30% compared to traditional liquid lithium batteries, and the cycle life has exceeded 2,000 times. This innovation not only improves the performance of the battery, but also provides strong support for the endurance of new energy vehicles.
At the same time, Guoxuan High-tech’s all-solid-state battery pilot line was officially put into operation, with a designed production capacity of 0.2 GWh, and 100% of the line was independently developed. These technological breakthroughs have laid a solid foundation for the future development of China’s new energy vehicles. With the gradual promotion of all-solid-state batteries, it is expected to further promote the popularization of new energy vehicles and enhance consumers’ purchasing confidence.
Innovation and application of charging technology
The progress of charging technology is also remarkable. At present, the power of the mainstream high-power charging technology in the industry has reached 350 kW to 480 kW, and the breakthrough of liquid-cooled supercharging technology has provided new possibilities for improving charging efficiency. Huawei’s fully liquid-cooled megawatt-class supercharging solution can replenish 20 kWh of electricity per minute, greatly shortening the charging time. In addition, BYD’s world-first “megawatt flash charging” technology has a peak charging speed of “1 second 2 kilometers”, providing users with a more convenient charging experience.
With the continuous improvement of charging infrastructure, the convenience of using new energy vehicles will be greatly improved. According to the data of China Association of Automobile Manufacturers, in the first four months of this year, the production and sales volume of new energy vehicles in China reached 4.429 million and 4.3 million respectively, up 48.3% and 46.2% year-on-year respectively. This impressive data not only reflects the vitality of the market, but also shows that consumers’ recognition and acceptance of new energy vehicles are constantly increasing.
Rapid development of intelligent driving technology
The rapid development of intelligent driving technology is an important part of China’s new energy vehicle industry innovation. The application of artificial intelligence has transformed automobiles from traditional mechanical products to “intelligent mobile terminals” with learning, decision-making and interaction capabilities. At the 2025 Shanghai International Auto Show, Huawei demonstrated the newly released Huawei Qiankun ADS 4 Intelligent Driving System, which reduced end-to-end latency by 50%, increased traffic efficiency by 20%, and reduced heavy braking rate by 30%. This technological advancement will provide strong support for the popularization of intelligent driving.
Xpeng Motors is also constantly innovating in the field of intelligent driving, launching the Turing AI intelligent driving chip, which is expected to be put into mass production in the second quarter. In addition, its flying car “Land Aircraft Carrier” has entered the mass production preparation stage and plans to pre-sell it in the third quarter. These innovations not only demonstrate the technical strength of Chinese automobile companies in the field of intelligent driving, but also provide new possibilities for future travel methods.
According to data, the penetration rate of new passenger cars with L2 assisted driving functions in China will reach 57.3% in 2024. This data shows that intelligent driving technology is gradually entering thousands of households and becoming an important consideration for consumers when buying cars.
The dual breakthroughs of China’s new energy vehicle industry in terms of technological innovation and market development mark that the industry has entered a new stage of development. With the continuous advancement of power batteries, charging technology and intelligent driving technology, China not only occupies an important position in the global automotive market, but also becomes an important leader in the transformation of the global automotive industry. In the future, with the continuous iteration of technology and the improvement of the industrial ecology, China’s new energy vehicle industry is expected to play a more important role globally and provide a “Chinese solution” for the sustainable development of the global automotive industry.
