The automobile arm of the Xiaomi Corp has filed for a new patent for its upcoming EV model (electric vehicle). The company has patented a new Power Battery technology that will be housed in the Xiaomi Car.
For those unaware, the Chinese tech giant has long been rumored to be working on its very own electric car. The company then confirmed these rumors and also set up a dedicated automobile unit. This department reportedly had a research and development team of over 500 and was apparently planning on releasing its first model sometime in the first half of 2024. But prior to any official announcement, a new patent was spotted that was for the Power Battery that could power the Xiaomi Car.
Based on the patent’s official documents, the company is working on a Power Battery that houses multiple rows of cells, multiple liquid cooling plates, liquid inlet components, and liquid output components as well. Furthermore, both sides of each row of cells are attached with liquid cooling plates. All of these components for the battery pack like the liquid cooling plates might just imply that the brand is working on a way to improve the service life of EV batteries as well as its safety performance as well.
We can also expect this battery tech to be used in the upcoming EV model from the company. Although this is still just speculation as of right now and Xiaomi could just be covering every base with this patent. So take this report with a pinch of salt for now.
