Last month, SKinno News published the first episode about the “Early stage (1982 – 1993)” of SK Innovation’s electric vehicle (EV) battery, which began 38 years ago.

\nSK Innovation has built up a solid history of batteries starting with the selection of “Energy accumulating battery system” as its future business to achieve Yukong’s(1)<\/sup> vision of becoming a “Total Energy Solution Provider” in 1982. This was followed by the success of developing an electric vehicle and batteries in 1993 that can run about 120 kilometers on a single charge.
