June 18, 20232 yr Toyota Touts Solid State EVs With 932-Mile Range, 10-Minute Charging by 2027 WWW.PCMAG.COM The Japanese automaker says it has found a new material that will help commercialize the elusive, long-awaited solid state battery, but it's light on details.
June 19, 20232 yr If they do it they will decimate the entire auto industry. Currently 350 to 400 is the publicized max range on an EV, which is under optimal driving conditions with no traffic, with Lucid "saying" they can go 516 miles but it's doubtful. I'm an old gearhead for sure and enjoy motorsports but if they could get 900 plus miles per charge with that kind of recharge rate to a full charge, I'd get in line for one tomorrow. Range and recharge time is truly the only things that has kept me from getting one as a daily driver to this point. Now if they could do it in a vehicle that has a sporty appearance and isn't throttled down so much that it's like a first gen Prius then hoo boy I'm there. The only things I would have to worry about at that point was battery life and what kind of requirements for uplink they have. I dont like having essential infrastructure or vehicles relying on a cloud based company server that controls my access to things. Check out this video and you will see why. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SyEgD-5GK9c&t=1s
