Expert Statements

Vincent Yang, Founder and CEO of ProLogium

“Since jointly announcing our collaboration with Rimac Technology at IAA in 2025, both teams have continued to advance the project, translating our shared technical vision into concrete engineering development work. What we are presenting at the Paris Motor Show is the baseline of that collaboration. Building on the completed concept mockup and the functional segments currently in development, we are preparing to move into the development and production of a functional battery progressing toward a full-scale battery pack and subsequent vehicle integration validation. Bringing next-generation batteries to the automotive market requires more than cell technology. It also takes the engineering expertise to integrate those cells into a battery pack with optimized architecture and thermal management. We look forward to combining our technical strengths through hardware development and testing to address the engineering challenges of automotive integration and translate the value of next-generation cell technology into solutions that can be adopted in vehicles.”

Daniel Kišić, Principal Product Architect of Rimac Technology

“Rimac Technology is developing a scalable cell-to-pack integration technology for solid-state pouch cells, designed to meet and exceed the requirements the automotive industry is expected to set over the coming decade. A wide range of integration solutions is currently being evaluated and tested in parallel on functional battery segments, covering thermal management, swelling management, cell integration and system-level design. Some of these solutions are oriented towards maximum energy density and reduced space and weight, while others are oriented towards delivering performance. The work starts from vehicle-level requirements and aims to improve every aspect of the battery design by reducing complexity, combining functions and reducing weight. It does so with cost in mind, while still delivering state-of-the-art charging times and power output. Once validated at vehicle level, the solution is expected to deliver significant weight savings, improving driving efficiency and extending range. OEMs could then choose between more energy on board at the same weight, a smaller and lighter battery for the same range, or any combination in between.”

Concept mockup to be showcased at the 2026 Paris Motor Show, with functional battery segment development planned as the next phase of cell and system integration work

PARIS, Oct. 12, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ProLogium today announced progress in its collaboration with Rimac Technology on next-generation electric vehicle battery pack development. The companies signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) in September 2025 to develop a next-generation battery platform and have completed a battery pack concept mockup, which will be displayed at the 2026 Paris Motor Show. The next phase will focus on developing a functional battery segment to establish a basis for testing the thermal management and cell-integration concepts and support battery pack applications in the battery electric vehicle (BEV) market.
