It’s also surprising when Toyota had all their R&D into hydrogen cell until very very recently
Yeah exactly. It sounds to good to be true
Batterys have been getting substantially better for 2 decades as well.
It does sound a bit like they’re playing catch up in the EV market and this is them trying to stay relevant in the news.
Big if true. We always hear about batter breakthroughs, and then they just never break through the theoretical wall.
Halving batteries should surely cut the weight. If it managed to do that, we could one day see electric airplanes. The issue now is that batteries are so heavy that they require lots of power to carry them through the air. More power means more battery, which means more weight. The issue is cyclical. So batteries need to be much lighter, and maybe we’ll see some greener air travel in the future!
Can save half their cost. I don’t think even if it gets practical, it’s going to result in cheaper cars.
We pass the saving on to
youourselves!
These are some bold claims. I hope they’re successful. I haven’t been able to find any info about what they will be made of, hopefully something more environmentally friendly than lithium.
I think these are lithium batteries. It’s just that they are solid state batteries.
More revolutionary battery tech we will never hear about again!
