During the last decade, the market interest for electrified vehicles has increased considerably alongside global climate initiatives. This has coincided with vast improvements in automotive-grade, lithium-ion battery performance. This has increased the range of battery electric vehicles and plug-in hybrids, but lifetime remains a challenge. Aging during fast charging is especially difficult to understand due to its nonlinear dependence on charge rate, state-of-charge, and temperature. We present results from fast charging of several energy-optimized, prismatic lithium-ion battery cell generations with a nickel manganese cobalt (NMC)/graphite chemistry through comparison of capacity retention, resistance, and dQ/dV analysis. Changes in cell design have increased energy density by almost 50% over six years of cell development and acceptable cycle life can be expected, even under fast charging, when restricting the usage of the available capacity. Even though this approach reduces the useable energy density of a battery system, this tradeoff could still be acceptable for vehicle applications where conventional overnight charging is not possible. The tested cell format has been used for a decade in electrified vehicles. The ongoing development and improvement of this cell format by several cell manufacturers suggests that it will continue to be a good choice for future vehicles.
