Not only the chip crisis, lithium battery prices are also rising, and car prices are getting higher and higher?

2021-09-24

Recently, the data released by Shanghai Steel Union show that the price of most Lithium Battery materials has increased, the price of metal lithium has increased by 20000 yuan / ton, lithium carbonate has increased by 1500-3500 yuan / ton, lithium hydroxide has increased by 2500-5000 yuan / ton, and the price of cathode materials has also increased, lithium iron phosphate has increased by 4000 yuan / ton, and lithium manganate has increased by 2500-5000 yuan / ton. As an important raw material for the production of lithium batteries, the impact of the rise in the price of lithium battery materials on the price of lithium batteries is self-evident. The corresponding may also be the "rise" in the price of lithium battery models such as Electric Vehicles.

It is noteworthy that at present, both the production and sales of electric vehicles and the capacity planning of power battery manufacturers are rising on a large scale. From January to August, the production and sales of new energy vehicles reached 1813000 and 1799000 respectively, with a year-on-year increase of 1.9 times. Among the main varieties of new energy vehicles, compared with the same period of last year, the production and sales of pure electric and plug-in hybrid vehicles continued the momentum of rapid growth. Most lithium battery manufacturers such as Ningde times, GuoXuan high tech and Yiwei lithium energy also have production increase plans during the year. Among them, Ningde times also announced on September 13 that it plans to invest in the construction of a new lithium battery production and manufacturing base (Yichun) project in Yichun, Jiangxi Province. According to the plan, the total investment of the project will not exceed 13.5 billion yuan, the planned land area is about 1300 mu, and the construction period is expected to be no more than 30 months from the commencement of construction.

Finally, with the sharp rise of lithium battery raw materials, the sales of new energy models are getting higher and higher. The contradiction between this will inevitably affect the final vehicle price, and will eventually affect a wave of potential customers who are very sensitive to the price
