American Battery Solutions Unveils Next-Generation Aventor Battery Platform

LAKE ORION, Mich. and DETROIT, Oct. 13, 2026 /CourierPR/ -- American Battery Solutions has unveiled Aventor, a next-generation high-voltage battery platform designed for rugged, high-utilization commercial, industrial, and specialty applications. The platform, which was introduced at The Battery Show North America (booth #5400), combines class-leading energy density, U.S.-sourced cells, advanced safety and intelligence, and flexible integration for demanding OEM electrification programs.

Aventor is built to support BABA-compliant OEM programs and features an advanced 800-volt architecture. This architecture delivers class-leading 300 Wh/L volumetric and up to 200 Wh/kg gravimetric energy density, with 113 kWh of energy and 358 kW of peak discharge power. The platform is designed, engineered, and assembled in the U.S.A. with domestically sourced cells, ensuring a high level of safety, reliability, and performance.

Aventor is available in two purpose-built form factors: the Chassis-Integrated Pack and the Hyper-Rugged Cube Pack. The Chassis-Integrated Pack is optimized for packaging efficiency and energy density, capable of installation between the frame rails or in other constrained horizontal locations. The Hyper-Rugged Cube Pack offers an even more rugged enclosure and load-path strategy for use in harsher mechanical environments that see the highest levels of vibration, shock, and utilization.

Safety, reliability, and intelligence are central to the design of Aventor. The wire-free battery management system (BMS) reduces system complexity and improves reliability. Ultra-high-precision voltage and temperature measurement at every series element, together with a microprocessor and onboard data storage at every cell group, provide granular monitoring and diagnostics. The system includes cybersecurity protections, over-the-air update capabilities, active isolation monitoring, vent-gas detection, and anti-propagation technologies.

Aventor is designed to align with the functional-safety, regulatory, and certification requirements important to commercial and industrial OEMs, including ASIL-C requirements under ISO 26262, FMVSS 305a, UL 2580, and ECE R100, among others. With ABS taking care of these requirements at the battery-platform level, the company is helping OEMs simplify integration, validation, and compliance as they bring electrified products to market.

For high-utilization applications where charging time directly affects productivity, the platform supports fast charging from 10% to 80% in 42 minutes or less. Aventor is built and validated for up to 10 years of heavy-duty design life with the vibration, shock, and environmental exposure common across commercial and industrial equipment. The standard enclosure is dust-tight and certified to both IP67 for immersion and IP69K for high-pressure washdown.

American Battery Solutions, Inc. (ABS) designs and manufactures advanced lithium-ion battery systems for commercial and industrial electrification. With engineering and development operations in Lake Orion, Michigan, and manufacturing in Springboro, Ohio, ABS provides high-performance battery solutions for commercial vehicles, transit, industrial equipment, and specialty applications. Founded in 2019, ABS is now a wholly owned subsidiary of Komatsu Ltd.

Customer samples of Aventor are planned for 2027, with start of production scheduled for Q1 2028. Initial production capacity will be 6,000 battery packs annually, representing approximately 0.7 GWh.
