The Korean electric firm ‘Samsung’ is all set to expand its battery business, as it is promising the dream battery for electric cars. 

The Korean giants are gearing up to add an extra layer to their versatility. Samsung SDI has recently revealed plans to power electric cars with a solid-state battery. Three years from now, in 2027, this battery is to go into lineup production for electric cars, and Samsung speaks of a dream battery. 

Now, the Korean giant is actively working to become the top brand in the global EV battery market. A couple of years ago, back in May 2015, Samsung SDI acquired Magna Steyr Battery Systems gmbH (MSBS), which offered the brand a complete business system for electric vehicle batteries. 

The battery will efficiently lower fire risk as compared to ritual lithium-ion batteries. It packs a punch with an energy density of nearly 450 Wh/kg, potentially leading to longer ranges for electric vehicles. The brand assures that the battery can be charged up to 80% in just nine minutes. 

Lithium-ion batteries from today’s production cars are nearly 200 Wh/kg or lower. Samsung itself, with its recently best battery, is a full 40% down the new solid-state generation. However, there are doubts regarding Samsung’s announcement from experts.
