The difference between ternary lithium battery and lithium iron phosphate battery


Comparison Dimensions Lithium Iron Phosphate Ternary lithium
Security High safety, good thermal stability,
not easy to catch fire
Slightly less safe, prone to thermal
runaway at high temperatures or impact
Battery life Low energy density, short battery life Higher energy density and longer battery life
Lifespan Long cycle life, usually more than 2000 times The cycle life is short, usually 1000-2000 times
Low temperature performance The battery life attenuation is more obvious
in low temperature environment
Good low temperature performance,
suitable for cold areas
Charging speed Slow charging speed Fast charging speed
Cost Low cost, suitable for economical vehicles The cost is relatively high,
 mostly used in mid-to-high-end models
Applicable scenarios Suitable for short-distance commuting,
commercial vehicles and scenarios
with high safety requirements
Suitable for passenger cars with high requirements
for endurance and use in cold areas
Unknown
More suitable for mass economical
electric vehicles or public transportation
that focus on safety,
life-saving and economical.
Suitable for users who pursue long battery life,
 fast charging and good low temperature performance,
 especially suitable for cold regions and mid-to-high-end models
