Germany is the in front of super battery for the electric car

The electric car is suffering from the reputation that the range
should not be very high. With most electric vehicles you can drive
about 140 kilometers, the range will vary depending on the model, from
then on various factors like the size of the battery, the outside
temperature and your own driving behavior.

Many people who want to buy an electric car expect a range beyond 200
kilometers.
Batteries that can drive an electric car over 200 miles. The startup
company DBM finds himself with his new super battery is already at the
destination.
DBM has been experimenting in his laboratory, many battery cells which
is where most of the battery cells, it is I to cells with lithium ion
technology, in this cell type is it is a huge kit with a variety of
possible material combinations.
Thus, elements such as lithium, nickel, cobalt, manganese and many
metals and materials are used, the goal is always the same: It will be
the storage capacity of electrochemical energy increased in
rechargeable battery cells, the greater distances to reach for
electric cars.

Finally, the Berlin-based company DBM with a lithium metal polymer
battery had on board a nonstop trip from Munich to Berlin made.
Oldenburg was in July of DBM, a field trial for the storage capacity
of the baptized in the name of hummingbird battery started for the
practical test, the kilowatt hours of 99 reduced to 40 kilowatt hours,
as the project operators with a range of around 200 kilometers
appeared adequate.
The electric cars are the hummingbird battery driven since July in the
Weser-Ems region on country roads and highways total 12,166
kilometers, a battery charge enough to cover a range of 230
kilometers.
The company claims the batteries themselves were flat-out driving on
the highway often have 20 to 30 percent of remaining capacity.
The drawback is about 30 percent higher purchase price if the price
has dropped significantly in a few years because the production
processes have become more efficient, this is a good solution for the
electric car.
