    Abstract: A capacitor-assisted hybrid lithium-ion electrochemical cell assembly includes two positive electrodes having a first polarity, each having at least two electrically conductive tabs disposed on at least one first edge and at least one second edge. Further, two negative electrodes having a second polarity each having at least two electrically conductive tabs disposed on at least one first edge and at least one second edge. At least one of the two positive electrodes or negative electrodes are distinct from one another. The electrically conductive tabs are substantially aligned in the electrochemical cell to respectively define a plurality of positive electrical connectors and a plurality of negative electrical connectors to reduce current density during high power charging and discharging.
