  • Publication number: 20250070149
    Abstract: A positive electrode active material precursor includes Ni and Mn and secondary particles formed by the aggregation of a plurality of primary particles. The secondary particles have a ratio of a core area to a total area of the particles ranging from 28.7% to 34.1%, and a porosity ranging from 11.3% to 11.7%. Also provided is a method for preparing the positive electrode active material precursor. Additionally, a positive electrode active material including a reaction product of the positive electrode active material precursor and a lithium raw material is provided. Also provided is a method for preparing a positive electrode active material using the positive electrode active material precursor.

  • Patent number: 12157398
    Abstract: The present disclosure to provides a vehicle capable of efficiently charging electric energy by determining a regenerative braking control improved for a driving situation in which the vehicle is driving, and a control method thereof. The vehicle includes: a power supply including a battery; a motor driven by receiving power from the battery; and a controller configured to determine a vehicle information including a charging state information of the battery, a temperature information of the battery, an input frequency of a braking command, and a driving history data, to determine a road information including a road condition information and a slope information of the road, to charge the battery by determining a regenerative braking level of the motor based on the vehicle information or the road information.

  • Patent number: 12013249
    Abstract: A vehicle provides an optimized route by minimizing charging rate and provides optimal charging at charging stations. The vehicle includes a user interface receiving a destination input, a storage storing a map data including location of charging stations and charging fee information of each, a driving guide image, and a guide fuel ratio corresponding to the driving guide image. A display displays a driving route and the image. A controller calculates the driving route and a travelable distance based on the battery SOC, selects a charging station as a stopover when a driving distance along the driving route is greater than the travelable distance, calculates a path through which the vehicle passes through the charging station selected as the stopover, determines target charging amount at the charging station selected as the stopover based on the guide fuel ratio and the path, and displays the target charging amount.
