CBAK Energy provides the best solutions for global new energy application. Our products cover model 26650 and model 32140 cylindrical Lithium iron phosphate batteries, ternary batteries and lithium manganate batteries. The 32140 cylindrical cell has successfully adopted the tab-less design, which greatly reduced the cell's impedance and effectively solved the heat dissipation problem for large size lithium ion batteries. Compared to tesla's 4680 model, which they only applied tab-less design on anode, CBAK's 32140 battery is tab-less on both cathode and anode, which significantly optimized cell's performance.

Meanwhile, by enhancing the manufacturing procedure, the difficulty in electrolyte soaking and loss of space in the battery's case caused by tab-less design has been solved. The application of our product is very competitive in the market which includes passenger vehicle and energy storage etc. 

There is no doubt that CBAK Energy and Kandi Group will extend the in-depth and long-term cooperation, which would facilitate the vehicle industry to become greener and smarter. Win-win result and development would be brought for both parties.
