On August 16, CATL launched Shenxing, the world's first 4C superfast charging LFP battery, capable of delivering 400 km of driving range with a 10-minute charge as well as a range of over 700 km on.
Last August, CATL presented the Shenxing battery, an LFP pack capable of adding 400 km of range in 10 minutes. This year, the company has rolled the tech into the Shenxing Plus, which combines four-figure range and even faster charging rates.
Battery giant CATL introduced its new Shenxing Plus battery, which can add 600 kilometers in as little as 10 minutes using 4C charging. While not as sexy as the latest car launches, this new battery is equally newsworthy.
At Auto China in Beijing, CATL has presented its new Shenxing Plus LFP battery designed to give electric cars a range of more than 1,000 kilometres. The battery with durable lithium iron phosphate cells is also said to be very quick to charge.
The Shenxing Plus battery is a 4C battery, meaning it has a charging multiplier of four times. CATL claims that this battery can enable cars to have a range of 1000 km (CLTC). Also aiding the space utilization is CTB 3.0 (cell to body) technology which gives the battery an integrated shell structure, increasing volume efficiency by 7%.
Yes, indeed. The potential ramifications of the Shenxing PLUS battery are really that big. On the one hand, this new technology from CATL is like the difference between a propeller-driven airplane lumbering across the Atlantic at 250 mph and a commercial jetliner that travels more than twice as fast.
According to CATL, the Shenxing Plus offers an energy density of 205 Wh/kg at system level. The company states, “The Shenxing PLUS battery pack has a topological structure optimized on top of module-free CTP 3.0 technology, enhancing the packing efficiency by 7%”.

Three forces are colliding: lithium carbonate prices swinging like a pendulum (up 400% in 2022, down 70% in 2023), supply chain bottlenecks at European ports, and the tidal wave of EU sustainability regulations requiring costly design overhauls. As of 2024–2025, BESS costs vary significantly across different technologies, applications, and regions: Lithium-ion (NMC/LFP) utility-scale systems: $0. 35/kWh, depending on duration, cycle frequency, electricity prices, and financing costs. Commercial & Industrial systems:. 2025 is shaping up to be the year when energy storage battery prices make lithium-ion cells cheaper than a Starbucks latte per kilowatt-hour. What Makes Up the Price of a Solar Storage Battery System? Battery cost: Typically 50%–70% of the total. Battery energy storage costs have reached a historic turning point, with new research from clean energy think tank Ember revealing that storing electricity now costs just $65 per megawatt-hour (MWh) in global markets outside China and the United States. This capability is key to achieving greater energy independence.
