Battery technology is the decade factor in the fast-moving world of electric vehicles: a factor that decides performance, range, and charging speed. Bharat Cell, as one of the solution providers for most domain problems in the energy sector, is all set to bring about a revolution of its kind with ultra-innovative 4680 cell technology. This is poised to be a game-changer in the EV industry.
A Leap from the Traditional: TV Remote Cells to 4680
To make this leap that Bharat Cell has made appreciated, let’s do a simple comparison. We return to our homes again, to TV remote cells: AA cells, to be more specific. These are widely found and easily available but have their field of applicability restricted. Fast forward to the 2170 cell—this is a step up in the world of EV batteries, widely used by major manufacturers globally. However, Bharat Cell has taken this advancement to a new level with its 4680 cell.

The Evolution of Battery Technology
2170 Cell: The 2170 cell is a relatively well-accepted format and a major improvement over traditional batteries. This format is used widely because of the strong performance it delivers in electric cars.
4680 Cell: Cell by Bharat presents a new quantum step in advancement: it is much bigger, but with the very best of battery technology now in it. If the 2170 cell would represent the four-gigabyte technology, then the 4680 cell is like the 5G of batteries—better performance, efficiency, and capabilities.
Key Highlights of the 4680 Cell
Greater Energy Density: The cell 4680 has a capacity of 5 times more energy than the 2170. In comparison, this will prove that the EVs powered with such cells are capable of moving across longer ranges, therefore dealing with one of the biggest problems that electric vehicle drivers face.
Charging Speeds: One of the most enticing features of the 4680 cell is the ability to charge 50% faster than its predecessors. The innovation means drivers will now achieve full charging in a fraction of time, making the electric vehicle more useful for everyday movement.
Advanced Manufacturing: On just the 4680 cell, Bharat Cell has filed over 70 patents — showing how deeply innovated the development is. The manufacturing process of the cell is very precise; the tolerances are fine down to 1/12 of a human hair.

Light: With 4680 being so much larger and compact than 2170, it is lighter and puts that much more in power to performance and efficiency in the vehicle.
Long-term Vision of Bharat Cell
Bharat Cell’s 4680 cell is a technology marvel but means much more, representing what India is capable of and a rising power in the world of advanced manufacturing. This cell will be featured in products starting Q1 FY 26, including, notably, in Ola S1 Scooter—both of which will benefit from enhanced performance and efficiency credited to this new technology.
Energy Storage and Beyond: The use of the 4680 cell goes even further than the automotive sector. Bharat Cell sees great penetration of energy infrastructure in India, evolving greener and better ways of storing and using the electricity.
The introduction of the 4680 battery cell by Bharat Cell will be game-changing in the entire EV industry. Promoting superior energy density, faster charging, and advanced manufacturing techniques, the 4680 cell will strongly drive high performance for electric vehicles and their adoption. At a time of exponential technological advancements in India, Bharat Cell leads with innovation and excellence to shape the future of energy solutions.
