Will your next EV have a solid-state battery and improved performance?

Solid-state batteries promise EV ranges up to 600 miles and recharge times under 10 minutes, with billions invested globally to improve safety and energy density.

  • Billions of dollars in global investment have driven a surge in solid-state battery R&D and industry partnerships, including Toyota and Volkswagen.
  • Faced with a lithium-ion performance plateau, developers are combining lithium-metal anodes with solid-state batteries to deliver higher energy, power and improved safety, researchers say.
  • QuantumScape stacks gossamer-thin oxide sheets inside metal frames and notes superionic sulfides are highly sensitive to humidity and hydrogen sulfide risks.
  • Market economics complicate adoption because lithium-ion prices fell to $115 per kwh by April 2025 and are projected toward $80 per kwh by 2030, and automakers require new batteries to be cheaper and better-performing.
  • If commercialized at scale, solid-state cells could enable consumer electric vehicles to travel four, five, six hundred miles and shift geopolitical power as China controls 70 percent of manufacturing.
