we’re completely ditching solid-state batteries. , because it really can’t land.” Henrik Fisker said, “I personally think that no matter what form of mass production, solid
GAC Group outlined its commitment to such battery technologies as solid-state battery, cobalt-free battery, low-cobalt battery, and sodium-ion battery. Of particular note, the breakthrough in solid-state battery technology, achieving a remarkable energy density of 400Wh/Kg, is set to meet safety...

Volkswagen-backed solid-state battery startupQuantumScapeis going public with a valuation of $3.3 billion, despite not producing any commercially-viable batteries yet. VW, which has been collaborating with QuantumScape since 2012, has said it will offer solid-state batteries in some vehicles,...
A new Honda test line for solid-state batteries lets it test different cell sizes, production processes, and other factors leading up to mass production. The cells are Honda's own design, not sourced from a third-party maker; the company is focused on cost competitiveness from the start. Ho...
BMW is heavily investing in sixth-generation batteries with round cells for the Neue Klasse platform but it’s already working on what will be a revolutionary breakthrough. Solid-state batteries are touted as being far superior to lithium-ion batteries thanks to a lighter construction and a ...
By doing away with the sloshing, flammable liquid electrolyte, solid-state batteries are, by default, more stable and compact. The solid electrolyte can be composed of any number of everyday materials, like ceramics and glass. Solid-state batteries have been used in small devices like pacemakers...
Today's electric cars use large lithium-ion batteries, which work fairly well. They can store a fairly high amount of energy in relation to their weight. They also don't need to be completely discharged each time before being ...
On the bright side, Toyota appears to be committed to building some amazing batteries as one of their goals is for solid state batteries to “keep more than 90 percent of their original performance in the long run; perhaps 30 years.”...
We’ve recently seensolid state batteriesare prone to dislodge current Lithium Ion battery technology as they are safer, support higher energy density, and faster charging. Such batteries are expected to be seen in car in the first part of the next decade, in smartphones sta...
