GM unveils fourth-generation EV platform with novel LMR battery chemistry from LG Energy Solution
General Motors used its GM Forward event in New York to detail a fourth-generation EV platform built around a lithium manganese rich (LMR) battery developed with LG Energy Solution, claiming 33 percent more energy density than LFP. The move marks a contrarian bet on a chemistry no other automaker is known to use, as rivals shift toward LFP and sodium batteries.
