SHERIDAN, WYOMING -- June 24, 2026 -- Shell has unveiled the Triple 10 Challenge concept car, a road-worthy battery electric vehicle designed to demonstrate a new approach to EV thermal management using the company's advanced dielectric fluid technology. Revealed at HORIBA MIRA's proving ground in the United Kingdom, the vehicle targets three simultaneous performance benchmarks: a sub-10-minute charge time, 10 km/kWh driving economy, and a lifecycle carbon footprint of approximately 10 tonnes CO2e. Shell positions the concept as a proof-of-concept for mass-market EV development that reduces reliance on ever-larger battery packs, instead using thermal fluid innovation to improve efficiency across the entire powertrain.
