Contemporary Amperex Technology Co., Limited (CATL) launched its Tectrans II battery platform in Germany to target the European commercial vehicle market.

The new system provides heavy-duty trucks with a range of up to 1,000 kilometers.

It also supports megawatt-level fast charging for industrial applications.

CATL signed a memorandum of understanding with DHL Group to develop green freight corridors in Europe.

This international push follows a decline in CATL’s domestic market share as of August 2026.

Rival BYD increased its market share during this period as Chinese EV makers diversified their battery suppliers.
