We Meet The CATL Shenxing Pro Battery At IAA 2025!

MANDATORY DISCLAIMER:

Transport Evolved was invited by CATL to attend the reveal of the Shenxing Pro battery at IAA Mobility 2025. CATL reimbursed our travel, meals, and accommodation to enable us to bring you this first-person report. YouTube requires this video be marked as "sponsored" due to our reimbursement arrangement. However, while a representative from CATL was allowed to view the video prior to publishing to verify quoted figures, Transport Evolved retained full editorial and final production control.

As the world's largest electric vehicle battery manufacturer, Contemporary Amperex Technology Co., Limited (CATL) battery packs now power one in every three electric vehicles. To help maintain its market-leading position, CATL is innovating new EV battery packs at an astonishing pace.

Six months ago, at CATL Tech Day 2025, it unveiled the Shenxing 2 Superfast Charging Battery, an LFP pack capable of a 12C charge rate. Now, it’s back with a new battery: the Shenxing Pro.

We were lucky enough to be invited to see the reveal event firsthand at IAA 2025 in Munich last week. Here’s what we learned.
