Honda selected Toshiba Corporation’s SCiB rechargeable Li-ion battery to power the Fit EV. Toshiba will supply battery modules for the new car, which Honda will launch in summer 2012 in Japan and the US. The SCiB generates little heat even during this fast recharging, eliminating the need for power to cool the battery module.

The results could make possible a whole family of inexpensive and durable materials practical for large-scale rechargeable batteries. The use of the new type of membrane can be applied to a wide variety of molten-electrode battery chemistries, Sadoway said, and opens up new avenues for battery design. through the MIT Energy Initiative.
