Expion360 Inc., announced the upcoming release of three next-generation battery models, with commercial availability expected in the second half of 2026.
The new product lineup includes:
- Group 27 – 12.8V 140Ah
Increased from 132Ah in the current generation, representing an approximate 6% increase in capacity. - GC2H – 12.8V 180Ah
Increased from 162Ah in the current generation, representing an approximate 11% increase in capacity. - EX1 – 12.8V 420Ah
Enhanced with VHC internal heating, which actively maintains battery temperature in cold conditions, and CAN Bus communication, expanding smart functionality compared to prior generations.
These new models build upon Expion360’s established presence in the recreational vehicle and marine markets while addressing growing demand for higher energy density, fully featured battery systems in industrial and commercial applications, including in certain industries where downtime is mission critical, such as surveillance and remote monitoring, so reliable cold weather performance and seamless system integration are essential, the company said. VHC internal heating supports consistent operation in low temperature environments, while RV-C CAN Bus communication, a standardized controller area network protocol, enables synchronized power, monitoring and control across connected system components.
The next generation of batteries are expected to be offered to customers at a lower cost than current equivalent models, while delivering higher capacity and improved performance. At the same time, the updated designs are expected to improve internal cost structure and margins, enabling increased reinvestment in product development and long-term customer value. These advancements support use cases ranging from mobile and off-grid systems to industrial power, monitoring and equipment applications, the company said.
The three new battery models incorporate Expion360’s patent pending VHC internal heating, SmartTalk Bluetooth connectivity, and advanced CAN Bus communication, expanding integration options for OEMs across both traditional and industrial focused platforms.
The batteries have been engineered to meet UL 1973 safety standards, with final certification pending.
“These new battery platforms are designed to support the markets we know well, while also having the versatility of use in a broader set of industrial and commercial applications,” said Carson Heagen, Chief Operating Officer of Expion360. “By improving energy density, system efficiency, and manufacturability, we’re delivering solutions that have the capacity to scale beyond traditional use cases and meet the demands of more complex, power-critical environments.”
