Which battery chemistry is dominant in electric vehicles due to high energy density?

  1. Lead-Acid
  2. LFP
  3. NMC
  4. Sodium-Ion

Answer: NMC

NMC (Lithium Nickel Manganese Cobalt Oxide) offers high energy density for EV range, balanced with cost and safety. LFP (Lithium Iron Phosphate) is safer, cheaper, longer-life but lower energy density. India's ACC PLI supports both. Critical for EV technology questions.
