Believe it or not, the first rechargeable lithium-ion batteries were invented in the U.S. Even Early nickel-manganese-cobalt (NMC) cathodes were developed at Argonne National Laboratory. The lithium-iron-phosphate (LFP) battery, too, originated in the U.S., with foundational work led by battery pioneer John Goodenough at the University of Texas at Austin.

General Motors on Tuesday said it’s planning to become the world’s first automaker to use lithium-manganese-rich (LMR) batteries in production trucks and full-size SUVs starting in 2028. The new chemistry marks a major pivot, not just from today’s nickel-manganese-cobalt (NMC) and lithium-iron-phosphate (LFP) batteries, but also from pouch cells GM…

General Motors and Korean battery giant LG Energy Solution have jointly developed a new lithium manganese rich (LMR) battery chemistry that promises to extend driving range and lower the cost of electric trucks. The new batteries will debut on GM’s models in 2028.
