CATL Launches Shenxing Pro EV Battery in Europe With Claimed 750‑Km Range and 10‑Minute Top‑Up

CATL pairs the debut with plans for European plants to court local carmakers.

Overview

  • Unveiled at IAA Mobility 2025 in Munich, the Shenxing Pro uses LFP chemistry and targets European vehicle programs.
  • Two variants were detailed: a 122 kWh pack rated up to about 750 km WLTP and a super‑fast version that adds roughly 478 km in 10 minutes.
  • CATL says the 122 kWh pack charges from 10% to 80% in about 15 minutes and can deliver around 410 km in 20 minutes at −20 °C.
  • The company claims longevity of up to 12 years or one million kilometres, with about 9% degradation by 200,000 km and around 70% capacity after one million.
  • CATL ties the launch to more than €11 billion in planned European investments, including a Stellantis‑linked gigafactory in Figueruelas, and notes that performance figures are company specifications pending independent testing.
