Toyota Motor Corporation, Japan has recently unveiled its plans for an All New Electric Vehicle with an all new battery technology that could offer a range of more than 900 miles or 1500 kms and could be a potential game changer for the Electric Vehicle market.
Toyota stated that the Solid State Batteries will enable them to roll out an all new Electric Vehicle by 2025 which will have an estimated range of 450 miles or 750 kilometers and will extend the Cruising Speed by almost 20%.
A higher performance version will have the potential to deliver 50% more Driving Range of over 900 miles or 1500 kms and perhaps mean that you can get from Delhi to Mumbai in a Single Charge and Charging Time would be little over 10 minutes.
Solid State Batteries are now regarded as a potential turning point for Electric Vehicles as compared to Lithium-ion Batteries which uses Liquid Electrolytes. Solid State Batteries will have the potential to reduce Charging Times, Increase Range and Capacity and Reduce Fire Risks.
Toyota Motor Corporation, Japan, however, claims that it has made a break through in Solid State Battery manufacturing that will actually make this set up easier to produce than a Lithium-ion set up.
