"When it comes to current mass market EV battery technologies, Chery had little chance against established names like CATL or BYD, so it decided to act as a startup and bet its sizable R&D efforts on an upcoming technology like solid-state batteries instead "....

Chery decided to stop r&d & trying to compete with the existing liquid Li-ion battery tech. instead focused on the newer solid-state battery tech.
