From a prior board about Toyota and electric cars, if this is true (and I’ll believe it when I see it), it would be a game changer. -- (edited)

745 mile range battery with a 10 minute charging time.

I hope they succeed, but not sure chasing the solid state battery will get them to market soon enough to still be relevant. - TWuG Jul 26, 20:33 11
- lithium range isn’t going to double in the next five years -- nm - hollywood big shot Jul 26, 20:39 9
  - It doesn't need to. -- nm - TWuG Jul 26, 21:08 6
    - if the next benchmark is 750m of range, even five years out, they kinda do. like the CPU race of the 90s -- nm* - hollywood big shot Jul 26, 21:17 5
      - If Toyota sets that benchmark, good on em. To say I doubt it would be putting it mildly. - TWuG Jul 26, 21:28 4
        
        solid state is inevitable, whether it's Toyota first or someone else. just a question of when it makes lithium obsolete overnight -- nm - hollywood big shot Jul 26, 21:48 3
        
        Solid state batteries use lithium. -- nm - TWuG Jul 26, 21:52 2
        
        silicon is the ultimate goal for SSBs -- (link) - hollywood big shot Jul 26, 21:58 1
        
        The silicon is replacing the graphite, not the lithium. -- nm - TWuG Jul 26, 22:10
  - cutting car weight is 1 way to extend range. -- nm - Peglegpete Jul 26, 20:44
  - not with that attitude! -- nm - prayformojo 🐵 Jul 26, 20:42
- They’ve started to make a couple. I expect more will be coming (though they need to improve them). -- nm - pmb Jul 26, 20:34
