SK On, a South Korean battery manufacturer, has announced that it has signed a battery cell supply agreement with the Swedish electric vehicle company, Polestar. Starting in 2025, SK On will supply battery cells for Polestar 5.
The Polestar 5 is a four-door Grand Tourer (GT) model scheduled for production in 2025. This model offers impressive performance with up to 650kW of power and 900Nm of torque. It will also be produced based on Polestar's custom aluminum platform developed at their UK research and development center.
The cells used in the Polestar 5 are extra-long high-nickel batteries measuring 56cm in length. These batteries have been improved by increasing the silicon ratio in the anode, enhancing charging performance and energy density. They have also undergone rigorous heat dissipation tests to further strengthen safety.
