Volvo Cars has partnered with Breathe Battery Technologies to get access to the latest version of its patented algorithm-enabled charging software for use on new generation EVs.
By integrating Breathe’s software in Volvo Cars in-house developed battery management platform to optimise and improve the performance of Volvo’s charging technology, it can provide Volvo customers with even faster charging times and an enhanced overall driving and charging experience, says Volvo Cars.
“We will implement the new technology in our new generation fully electric cars, where we expect it will reduce the time it takes to charge your fully electric Volvo from 10 to 80% charging state by as much as 30%, while maintaining the same energy density and range,” the company says.
“Even better; the charging time improvements will last across the full battery life cycle without impacting its health status.”
