Change Pattern Audi Will Be The Cost Of The Battery To 100 Ohms / Kwh
See the title, may be a lot of people will be surprised a moment, the battery cost reduced it, change what pattern it? Here to first popularize a little knowledge: power battery industry that only when the battery cost is less than 100 US dollars / kWh below, pure electric vehicle profitability is possible. And recently, Dr. Peter Mertens, senior vice president of Audi R & D, Engine Turbocharger unexpectedly disclosed that Audi's battery purchase costs have reached € 100 / kWh ($ 114 / kWh). I am afraid to rely on the cost advantage of the expansion of the Tesla advantage has disappeared. Not long ago, Audi has announced its electric strategy, it is expected that Audi's first pure electric SUV t-tron quattro will be listed at the end of 2018. Subsequently, Audi will continue to bring a few models of pure electric vehicles, and all this foundation is undoubtedly inseparable with the cost of the battery Mertens said in an interview with the German media: "We have adopted a high to low strategy, because the market segment (electric car market) has a large number of Audi potential customer groups.Currently, this model (e-tron quattro) The cost of the power battery is about € 100 / kWh. " Audi e-tron quattro battery 100 euros / kWh cost has been low to "incredible". The electric vehicle industry pioneer Tesla, the cost of the battery is still $ 155 / kWh. So what is the industry average? Earlier this year, McKinsey released a car power battery research report, note the following figure, the report shows the average cost of the battery from 2010 1000 US dollars / kWh down to 2016 $ 227 / kWh. It can be seen, Audi for pure electric field research and development, has been leading the industry, and leading more than one star the slightest. And Audi's life to reduce battery costs, not only shows its advanced technology, more will directly reduce the e-tron pure electric vehicle sales price and the cost of the use of passengers, which is looking at the article for you, is Tangible benefits. Audi will launch three pure electric vehicles in 2020, and plans to 2025, to achieve pure electric vehicle production accounted for 25% of the total output of 35% target. With such a power to the cost of the battery, I believe that such a plan is not just "dead knock" Tesla, but also in the pure electric field to do the leading boss, we will wait and see.
