Global Automotive OEMs Receive First Shipments of StoreDot’s UN 38.3 Certified ‘100-in-5’ Cylindrical Battery Cells

StoreDot’s ‘100-in-5’ cylindrical cells pass UN 38.3 safety certification and are now shipping to global automotive OEM partners

StoreDot, the pioneer and world leader in extreme fast charging (XFC) silicon-dominant battery technology for electric vehicles, today announced a major commercialization milestone. Its XFC cylindrical cells in the 4695 form factor have successfully passed the rigorous UN 38.3 transportation safety standard.

This crucial certification validates the safety and robustness of StoreDot’s silicon-dominant cell chemistry and design, officially clearing the ‘100-in-5’ cells for shipment by air, sea, and land. Following this approval, StoreDot has begun shipping the XFC cells to its global automotive OEM partners who have selected this cylindrical form factor for their upcoming EV platforms.

This milestone comes as StoreDot’s ongoing testing programs continue to yield exceptional results. Initial data from the shipped cells confirms performance consistent with StoreDot’s published data, including charging 10-80% in 10 minutes.

Furthermore, the latest longevity tests, which are still ongoing, show significant improvements in durability. Current results indicate the cells are on track to exceed 3,000 consecutive XFC cycles (10-80% charge in 10 minutes) while maintaining over 80% of their original capacity. This performance far exceeds the industry standard and demonstrates that extreme fast charging can be achieved without compromising battery longevity.

Dr. Doron Myersdorf, CEO of StoreDot, stated: “Passing the comprehensive UN 38.3 standard is a critical proof point for our technology, proving that our silicon-dominant XFC cells are not only a game-changer for EV performance but also robust, safe, and stable for global logistics. We are incredibly proud to confirm that these cells are now being shipped to our OEM partners, marking a new era where 10-minute charging is a tangible reality.”

Dr. Myersdorf added: “We are not just meeting our performance targets; we are exceeding them. The positive data from our ongoing longevity tests, which are projecting a life of over 3,000 cycles, is a testament to the stability of our technology. This gives our automotive partners the immense confidence they need—knowing they are integrating a cell that delivers extreme fast charging, high energy density, and world-class durability. This is a crucial step in our mission to eliminate charging and range anxiety for all EV drivers.”

StoreDot’s ‘100-in-X’ product roadmap, which delivers 100 miles of range in 5 minutes in 2024, 4 minutes by 2026, and 3 minutes by 2028, is firmly on track.
