Synopsis
Bengaluru-based startup Log 9 has come up with a unique hybrid battery solution that may push adoption of EVs in last-mile delivery. The technology, with a 15-year battery life, addresses three key problems — long charging time, battery degradation, and high upfront costs. But as it starts commercial production, Log 9 will face challenges it didn’t encounter at the pilot stage.
