General Motors launches new "groundbreaking" electric battery technology aims to become the market first

General Motors Automakers are expected to say they will reduce costs and increase the profitability of their largest electric SUVs and trucks, which will pioneer new "groundbreaking" electric battery technology.

GM targets new batteries and chemistry in it, called prismatic battery cells rich in lithium manganese, which can be used in full-size electric vehicles such as its Chevrolet Silverado and Escalade IQ, starting in 2028.

The new battery uses more valuable, lower-priced minerals, such as manganese, instead of the large amounts of cobalt and nickel used in electric vehicle batteries currently from GM and other automakers.

GM's first-to-market expectation comes earlier this month after Crosstown rival Ford Motor announced its intention to launch a so-called "game-changing" LMR battery by 2030.
