⚡ FAW Jiefang tests sodium-ion electric truck

FAW Jiefang ran an electric truck with a 339 kWh sodium-ion battery over 15,000 km in real conditions. The battery kept over 90% capacity at −40 °C and charged fully in 20-25 minutes.

The truck’s battery was developed with Zhongke Haina and offers more than 8,000 fast charge cycles. Sodium-ion chemistry is cheaper and more stable under heat than lithium, making it a strong alternative for heavy-duty vehicles.
