Charging time of the V4Drive cells will be just six minutes. Varta will launch a pilot production line at the group's headquarters in Ellwangen (Baden-Wrttemberg) in Germany, by the end of 2021.
Series production of the V4Drive is planned for 2024 with a goal of 100-200 million cells (of undisclosed capacity) per year. In the automotive industry, it's a noticeable, but not high scale. Anyway, great news is that another company is joining the market with an additional solution.
