The Gist

A leading battery manufacturer has begun vehicle testing of solid-state cells, promising double the range of current EVs.

Double the Range, Half the Charging Time

The electric vehicle industry is on the verge of a massive paradigm shift. Today, new solid-state battery cells entered official track testing with real prototypes.

Solid-state technology replaces the liquid electrolyte with solid materials, drastically reducing fire risk and enabling ultra-fast charging speeds without degrading cell longevity.

What this means for buyers

  • Up to 800km of real-world range on a single charge.
  • 10% to 80% charge in less than 8 minutes.
  • Longer overall vehicle lifecycle.
