Charging change, one cell at a time

From chemistry choices to thermal finesse and circular ecosystems, this story unpacks the real forces powering tomorrow's EVs, where smarter batteries, faster charging, and cleaner production drive more than just mobility

The battery may be tucked away, hidden under the frame or behind the cabin but make no mistake, it's the beating heart of electric mobility.

And as the auto industry barrels toward electrification, the spotlight shifts to what powers the power: smarter chemistry, faster charging, longer life, and greener production.

In a candid conversation, Johannes Rossmanith, Director R&D, Battery & Charging Systems, BorgWarner, maps out how innovation in battery systems is shaping the electric future. But this isn't a distant, speculative tale. It's a grounded, deeply technical journey centered on what's real, scalable, and ready for the road.
