MG is improving the batteries of their electric vehicles with its new SolidCore semi-solid state batteries.
The brand becomes the first manufacturer to mass produce semi-solid state batteries which will offer longer range, faster charging times, and refined power delivery for their electric vehicles.
According to MG, SolidCore batteries have solid-state electrolytes within each cell, forming a protective barrier, extending battery lifespan and ensuring full compliance with future regulatory standards.
This helps the architecture perform exceptionally in low-temperature conditions, enabling immediate vehicle start-up without preheating and providing improved acceleration compared with conventional EVs under similar conditions.
SolidCore battery technology will be introduced in MG vehicles in Europe at the end of 2026. With that, we can expect to see them in Philippine models sometime next year.
In addition to the mass production of semi-solid state batteries, MG highlighted their new Hybrid+ Technology which uses advanced software and hardware to optimize fuel consumption, deliver power quicker, and create an even more seamless integration between mechanics and electrification for improved refinement and driving experience.
Enhancements include a larger 1.83kWh High-Capacity core battery to increase electric-only range and an innovative 3-speed hybrid transmission to optimize instant, ‘electric-first’ torque to deliver the power even quicker. Meanwhile, an 8-mode Logic Engine helps to improve the performance and management of the power delivery.
“The introduction of MG’s latest battery and hybrid technologies globally signals an exciting direction for the brand, and one that we are eager to bring closer to the Philippine market,” said Mr. Wei Wei Zhang, president of MG Motor Philippines.
