$PANASONIC CORP(PCRFY.US)$ is looking to purchase land in the United States for a mega-factory to make a new type of electric vehicle (EV) battery for $Tesla(TSLA.US)$, public broadcaster NHK reported on Friday.

$Panasonic Corp(PCRFY.US)$正在寻求在美国购买土地，用于建造一家巨型工厂，生产一种新型电动汽车(EV)电池$特斯拉(TSLA.US)$，公共广播公司NHK周五报导称。

Panasonic is looking at building the factory, to cost several billion dollars, in either Oklahoma or Kansas for their proximity to Texas, where Tesla is preparing a new EV plant, NHK reported. NHK gave no timeline for Panasonic's U.S. project.

据NHK报道，松下正考虑在俄克拉何马州或堪萨斯州建造这座工厂，耗资数十亿美元，因为这两个州靠近德克萨斯州，特斯拉正在那里准备一家新的电动汽车工厂。NHK没有给出Panasonic美国项目的时间表。

NHK did not cite the source of its information. Panasonic said the reported plan was not something it announced.

NHK没有引述其信息来源。松下表示，报道的计划并不是它宣布的。

A long-time supplier for Tesla, Panasonic has already announced plans to begin mass-producing the new type of lithium-ion battery for Tesla before the end of March 2024 with two new production lines at its western Japanese plant in Wakayama.

作为特斯拉的长期供应商，松下已经宣布计划在2024年3月底之前开始为特斯拉批量生产新型锂离子电池，在日本西部和歌山的工厂有两条新的生产线。

The 4680 format (46 millimetres wide and 80 millimetres tall) battery is about five times bigger than those currently supplied to Tesla, meaning the U.S. electric vehicle (EV) maker will be able to lower production costs.

4680规格(宽46毫米，高80毫米)电池比目前供应给特斯拉的电池大约五倍，这意味着这家美国电动汽车(EV)制造商将能够降低生产成本。

The new powerpack is also expected to improve vehicle range.

新的动力包预计还将提高车辆续航里程。
