In this work, ternary metal nitrides are proposed as novel electrode materials for supercapacitors. We selectively fabricate ternary vanadium titanium nitride/carbon (VTiN/C) nanofibers through a facile electrospinning strategy and investigate their electrochemical performance for the first time. The obtained well‐interconnected VTiN/C nanofibers with VTiN nanoparticles embedded into carbon ensure rapid electron/ion transfer and offer a highly ion‐accessible surface. Appealingly, the VTiN‐4/C nanofibers exhibit a greatly improved performance, with a high specific capacitance (430.7 F g −1 , 0.5 A g −1 ) and a good rate capability. Furthermore, the performance of the VTiN/C nanofibers is found to be controllable by adjusting the V/Ti atomic ratio. The encouraging electrochemical performance suggests that ternary VTiN could be a promising electrode material for supercapacitors.
