Toyota Announces Major Breakthrough In Solid-State EV Battery Technology Enabling A 900 Miles Driving Range
Toyota has unveiled plans for many new technologies, including next-generation electric vehicle batteries, aerodynamic drag reduction, and manufacturing improvements to assist the company in change in the electric future. Here's what we know.?
Toyota claims to provide solid-state EV batteries with a potential range of more than 900 miles
Following a breakthrough, Toyota claims it wants to provide solid-state EV batteries with a potential range of more than 900 miles.At the occasion, a number of Toyota executives gave speeches outlining the automaker's impending EV tech strategy with prototypes that are now in development.
Toyota is under pressure from regulators and investors to switch to all-electric vehicles, but the Japanese carmaker is still pursuing a hybrid plan that includes EVs, PHEVs, HEVs, and fuel cell vehicles (FCEV).?
To promote its next-generation EVs, Toyota did introduce a number of innovative advancements, including the following:cost-saving manufacturing enhancementsAerodynamics improved by hypersonic technologyTechnology for EV batteries, such as solid-state batteriesBasic adjustments to increase the appeal of EV products.?
Toyota claims it would use Giga casting to create a straightforward and thin car body construction in order to make sure its future EVs are profitable. Tesla's method streamlines production by lowering the number of parts required to assemble a car.?
Toyota will incorporate different types of technologies?
To enable mass-produced cars to move down the assembly line on their own, Toyota will also incorporate technology like a self-propelling production line.Toyota hopes to reduce factory investment, production lead times, and factory costs for mass-produced EVs by 50% as a result of the investments.?
For its electric vehicles, the Japanese manufacturer is also researching cutting-edge technology that can lower drag, like the hypersonic technology used in rockets. Toyota claims to be investigating new ideas with Mitsubishi Heavy Industries' Space Systems Division.?
One of the most important things to remember from Toyota's briefing was its new EV battery technology. According to Toyota, its plans to release its next generation of electric cars in 2026 with a cruising range of more than 620 miles (1,000 km) are moving forward.Solid-state EV battery technology is another technological advance made by Toyota.?
The battery is anticipated to increase the cruising range by 20%.The car manufacturer claims it is quickening development and plans to begin commercial production in 2027 or 2028, with a 20% increase in range and a 10-minute quick charge.?
A more powerful model is being researched and developed; Toyota claims it will have a cruising range that is 50% longer, or over 900 miles.?
