With Gasgoo Daily, we will offer daily important automotive news in China. For those we have reported, the title of the piece will include a hyperlink, which will provide detailed information.
On May 12, XPENG announced that its upcoming GX model will become the first vehicle in the industry to adopt an EIS (Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy) battery safety chip. The technology enables real-time "ECG-like" monitoring of battery cells and can double the early warning time for detecting cell defects.
Key Points
· The EIS chip works alongside traditional BMS monitoring systems for voltage, current, and temperature detection.
· XPENG developed a full-stack impedance spectrum detection algorithm in-house to identify subtle dynamic changes inside battery cells.
· The technology is designed to improve battery safety during vehicle operation and charging/discharging processes.
· XPENG said the system can increase low-temperature charging speed by 27%.
· SOC (state of charge) accuracy is improved by 50%.
· The GX also features a triple-layer battery protection structure, including:
o Four-layer underbody battery protection
o High-strength bottom protection beam
o Full-coverage four-layer thermal runaway protection
· The protection system is designed to resist intrusion, overheating, fire, and explosion risks.
