solid-state battery

All-solid-state batteries may be the key to unlocking longer range, faster charging, and overall more efficient electric vehicles. After a series of breakthroughs, scientists in China overcame several hurdles that have been holding the new EV battery tech from hitting the market.

Toyota is doubling down on the “holy grail” of EV tech — all-solid-state batteries. Its first EV could arrive as soon as 2027, promising longer driving range, faster charging times, and more.

Solid-state battery developer QuantumScape has announced a partnership with Corning Incorporated, one of the world’s leaders in glass, ceramics, and materials science, to develop new manufacturing capabilities. This agreement is another foundational step in QuantumScape’s quest to build a network of partners that will enable it to finally industrialize and scale its next-generation solid-state battery technology.

Solid-state EV batteries will be here before you know it, Mercedes-backed Farasis Energy claims. During a recent investor meeting, Farasis said it will begin delivering solid-state EV batteries by the end of 2025.

The next generation of electric vehicle batteries will be here sooner than expected. After opening the first-of-its-kind pilot plant for its all-solid-state EV batteries this week, SK On said it plans to bring the breakthrough battery tech to market ahead of schedule.

Mercedes-Benz is calling the new battery tech “a true gamechanger” after hitting a new benchmark. A Mercedes EQS, powered by solid-state batteries, traveled 750 miles without stopping, and it still had some energy left to spare.

Solid-state battery developer QuantumScape and business partner PowerCo, a battery company under the Volkswagen Group umbrella, just completed their first live demonstration of QS solid-state lithium-metal batteries powering an actual vehicle. In this instance, the energy-dense solid-state battery cells powered a Ducati motorcycle.

What a headline and what a future evolving before our eyes. Chinese battery expert EVE Energy inaugurated a new production base yesterday, and to celebrate the feat, rolled one of its new all-solid-state batteries off the production line.

The world’s first mass-produced EV powered by a semi-solid-state battery is officially here, and it starts at less than $15,000.

One more major player in the auto industry is now testing the “holy grail” of electric vehicle batteries. Solid-state EV batteries promise longer driving ranges, faster charging, and significantly higher energy density. However, this carmaker is using them in a unique way.

Nissan just got one step closer to unlocking the “holy grail” of EV batteries for drivers. With help from LiCAP Technologies, Nissan is gearing up for its first vehicles powered by all-solid-state EV batteries.

Maryland-based ION Storage Systems shipped its first commercial generation of solid-state batteries, called Cornerstone, to “leading” consumer electronics companies.

The “Holy Grail” of EV batteries may be closer than we think. The first mass-produced EV to feature a semi-solid-state battery, the new MG4, was just cleared for sale in China.

SAIC Motor opened pre-sales for the new MG4 EV, starting at just over $10,000 in China. The Chinese automaker confirmed a new MG4 model, powered by a semi-solid-state battery, is set to launch next month.

The “holy grail” of electric vehicle battery tech may be here sooner than you’d think. Mercedes-Benz is testing EVs with solid-state batteries on the road, promising to deliver over 600 miles of range. Here’s when you can expect to see it hit the market.

Another company claims to have solid-state EV batteries in the works that will unlock well over 1,000 miles (3,000 km) of range and fast charging in just five minutes. And it’s not BYD this time. Is it too good to be true?

Solid-state battery developer QuantumScape shared another exciting milestone today: integrating its long-developed “Cobra” solid-state separator manufacturing process into its baseline production. This step technology significantly reduces the overall footprint and production time of QuantumScape’s proprietary solid-state cells, setting the stage for commercialized production.

BYD is responding to a report that it’s testing solid-state EV batteries in its Tesla Model 3-rivalling Seal. The rumors claimed Seal could achieve a total driving range of nearly 1,200 miles (1,875 km). Here’s what BYD is saying.

Nissan is betting big on solid-state batteries to help power up a comeback. The automaker says the next-gen battery tech will be a “game-changer for EVs,” promising more range, faster charging, and lower costs. Nissan just confirmed its first EV with solid-state batteries is on track, but it may trail Toyota and Volkswagen to market.

Maryland-based ION Storage Systems is about to dramatically accelerate the commercialization of its unique solid-state batteries (SSBs).

Hyundai is about to take the next steps as it preps to launch production of its “game-changing” all-solid-state batteries. The new EV battery tech promises a longer driving range, faster charging, and significantly higher energy density. Here’s what to expect.
