Product Overview
CATL 93Ah EV Battery Cell for YUASA LEV50 Replacement for Mitsubishi i-MiEV, Peugeot iOn and Citroën C-Zero
The CATL 3.7V 93Ah NMC battery cell provides a higher-capacity solution for replacing aging YUASA LEV50 cells in selected EV battery rebuilding projects. Compared with the original 50Ah LEV50 cell, the CATL 93Ah provides approximately 86% higher nominal capacity while maintaining the same 3.7V nominal voltage platform. Its similar length and thickness support mechanical adaptation for selected original battery pack structures. For LEV50 replacement, laser-welded M8 studs with integrated M3 mounting holes and matching epoxy insulation spacer plates are available for terminal connection and height adjustment.
This solution is mainly used for Mitsubishi i-MiEV, Peugeot iOn and Citroën C-Zero battery rebuilding projects.
Quick Compatibility Summary
CATL 93Ah is a higher-capacity NMC cell solution for selected YUASA LEV50 battery rebuilding projects, including Mitsubishi i-MiEV, Peugeot iOn and Citroën C-Zero. Both cells use a 3.7V nominal voltage platform, but mechanical installation, terminal configuration and BMS compatibility must be verified before replacement.
Important: This is a professional battery rebuilding solution rather than a universal plug-and-play replacement. Vehicle configuration, mechanical installation and BMS compatibility should be verified before installation.
Why Replace YUASA LEV50 with CATL 93Ah
Aging LEV50 cells may suffer from capacity loss, reduced driving range and inconsistent performance. Upgrading to CATL 93Ah NMC cells provides a higher-capacity option for rebuilding older EV battery packs.
86% Higher Nominal Capacity
93Ah nominal capacity compared with the original 50Ah LEV50 cell.
Same 3.7V Nominal Voltage Platform
Both cells use a 3.7V nominal voltage platform, supporting evaluation for selected LEV50 battery rebuilding projects.
Similar Mechanical Footprint
Similar length and thickness support mechanical adaptation within selected original battery pack structures.
Customized Terminal Solution
Laser-welded M8 studs with integrated M3 mounting holes are available for professional LEV50 replacement installation.
Height Adjustment Solution
Matching epoxy insulation spacer plates are available to support installation height adjustment and electrical insulation.
YUASA LEV50 vs CATL 93Ah Cell Comparison
The original LEV50 cell has approximately 50Ah capacity, while the CATL replacement cell provides 93Ah nominal capacity.
LEV50: 3.7V / 50Ah / NMC
CATL: 3.7V / 93Ah / NMC
The higher cell capacity provides greater energy-storage potential for EV battery upgrades.

Before Requesting a Quote
To help us confirm the correct CATL 93Ah LEV50 replacement solution for your project, please provide:
Vehicle Model & Model Year — Mitsubishi i-MiEV, Peugeot iOn or Citroën C-Zero.
Original Cell Quantity — Confirm whether your battery pack uses 80 or 88 cells.
Required Quantity — Let us know the number of cells required, including any optional spare cells.
Terminal & Installation Requirements — Confirm the required terminal configuration and battery pack installation requirements.
Destination Country — Shipping options, DDP availability and delivery time depend on the destination and order quantity.
For technical evaluation, BMS compatibility and the original battery pack configuration should also be verified before installation.
BMS & Installation Considerations
The original vehicle BMS may be retained in some battery rebuilding projects, but compatibility should be evaluated for the specific vehicle and battery configuration.
Before installation, professional technicians should verify:
• Charge and discharge voltage limits
• Battery capacity settings and SOC calculation
• Cell balancing strategy
• Temperature monitoring
• Protection parameters
• Electrical connections and insulation
High-voltage EV battery rebuilding should be performed by experienced technicians with appropriate equipment and knowledge of EV battery systems.
Real Customer Project
270 CATL 93Ah Cells for 3 Mitsubishi i-MiEV Battery Replacements
A customer ordered 270 CATL 93Ah cells for battery rebuilding projects involving three Mitsubishi i-MiEV electric vehicles.
Each vehicle required 88 cells, meaning 264 cells were required for the three battery packs. The customer ordered six additional cells as spares for the installation process.
