On September 7, 2025, CATL officially launched the world’s first NP3.0 battery safety technology platform and the Shenxing Pro lithium iron phosphate (LFP) battery in Munich, Germany. The platform, built upon eight core technologies forming a “safety iron triangle,” achieves groundbreaking performance: 20mm steel pin penetration without fire, smoke concentration below 100 μg/m³, and stability at -40℃.
The NP3.0 technology has been officially implemented in the first LFP power battery product, Shenxing Pro. Certified under the European Union ECE R100 safety standard, it is the world’s first LFP battery technology platform to receive this certification. Even during thermal runaway, the high-voltage system maintains stable output for over one hour, fully meeting the high standard requirements of L3/L4 autonomous driving for continuous and stable power system performance.
Technological Breakthroughs: From Lab to European Streets
NP3.0 integrates eight core technologies, including flame-retardant electrolytes, nano-coated cathode materials, and aerogel insulation pads, forming a three-dimensional protection system. Tests show that in extreme thermal runaway scenarios, the platform not only rapidly blocks heat propagation but also maintains high-voltage system operation, ensuring the vehicle can safely exit dangerous conditions. For instance, under -40℃ extreme cold, the battery retains 90% capacity with only a 5% reduction in charging efficiency. In 20mm steel pin penetration tests, there was no fire, no visible smoke, and smoke concentration remained under 100 μg/m³, preventing secondary accidents.
The Shenxing Pro battery system achieves a 76% pack efficiency, 20% higher than traditional solutions, and reduces weight by 15%, contributing to overall vehicle lightweighting. The long-life version offers a WLTP range of 758 km, a lifespan of 12 years/1 million km, and only 9% capacity degradation over 200,000 km, suitable for long-distance European trips. The ultra-fast charging version supports 12C peak charging, providing 478 km in 10 minutes, and can charge from 20% to 80% in 20 minutes at -20℃, addressing charging anxiety in cold regions.
Performance Breakthroughs: Real Feedback from European User Scenarios
During a 300 km highway test from Munich to Frankfurt, the BMW iX3 equipped with the Shenxing Pro ultra-fast charging version experienced no range anxiety, requiring only 10 minutes of charging to regain 200 km. The long-life version was tested during cross-country family trips in Norway, enduring -20℃ low temperatures and continuous uphill climbs, showing only 8.5% capacity degradation after 200,000 km, increasing asset retention by 35%.
According to CATL’s Senior Vice President and Chief Customer Officer, Tan Libin, the Shenxing Pro battery charges 40% faster than traditional LFP batteries at -20℃, and maintains 85% efficiency even at -40℃. This technology has passed rigorous tests by Daimler, BMW, and other European automakers, becoming standard equipment in high-end European vehicles.
Market Deployment: From Local Production to Global Electrification
CATL has established three production bases in Europe: the Thuringia plant in Germany with 30 GWh annual capacity serving BMW and Daimler; the Debrecen plant in Hungary, a €7.3 billion investment with 100 GWh annual capacity located near BMW and Stellantis headquarters to shorten delivery cycles; and the Spain plant, a €4.1 billion investment with 50 GWh annual capacity focusing on LFP production. In its first month, the Shenxing Pro secured over 2 million orders, covering 35 models across 12 brands including BMW and Mercedes-Benz. By 2030, it is expected to reduce European carbon emissions by over 100 million tons.
Upcoming Industry Events: Promoting Global Industrial Collaboration
The 2026 China International New Energy Vehicle Technology, Components, and Services Expo will bring together global technology products and activities, providing a professional international cooperation platform for supply chain enterprises. The event reflects CATL’s commitment to building a mature and comprehensive supply chain ecosystem in China. Last year, experts, leaders, automakers, and supply chain representatives from both domestic and international markets participated.
