🚗Honda Accelerates EV Innovation with All-Solid-State Batteries Honda is committing $277M to establish a pilot production line in Japan, launching in January, to develop next-generation batteries 🔋that could double the driving range by the late 2020s. These all-solid-state batteries promise extended range, lighter weight, and lower costs, enhancing EV efficiency and sustainability. By 2030, Honda aims to produce over 2 million EVs annually, with a goal of transitioning to a fully electric and fuel cell vehicle lineup by 2040, solidifying its leadership in the journey toward a sustainable future.

Honda Unveils Solid-State Battery Demo Line: Accelerating the Future of EVs 🚗⚡️ Honda has introduced a new solid-state battery demo production line at its R&D facility in Sakura City, Japan. This cutting-edge line replicates key processes like electrode material mixing, coating, cell formation, and module assembly—crucial steps for future mass production. Starting in January 2025, Honda plans to use this facility to accelerate its battery development, aiming to launch EVs equipped with solid-state batteries in the late 2020s. This marks a significant step toward sustainable mobility and the evolution of electric vehicle technology. #Honda #SolidStateBattery #EV #ElectricVehicles #NextGenBattery #DemoProductionLine #EcoCars #Technology #FutureTech #SustainableFuture Honda unveils all-solid-state EV battery production line for the first time https://lnkd.in/ervrGbDU

Honda doesn't just want to power future vehicles with solid-state batteries; the company wants to develop and ultimately mass-produce the batteries itself. Solid-state tech represents a deep-anchored cornerstone of both its midterm electric vehicle plans and its greater goal of achieving full carbon neutrality by 2050. It took a big step toward those objectives this month, unveiling its first demonstration solid-state production line, which will allow it to refine both the battery construction and the manufacturing processes behind it.

Stellantis CEO Carlos Tavares is on a mission to make #EVs lighter and more affordable, and we're helping him get there. Tavares sat down with Car and Driver to discuss how Stellantis is building its own batteries and investing in next-generation technologies to be a competitive EV maker. Our solid-state battery technology provides up to 50% higher energy density compared to lithium-ion, packing more energy while shedding significant EV weight. It's an incredible opportunity for us to partner with Stellantis to advance the adoption of our solid-state battery technology. https://bit.ly/3P4abTs #FutureisFactorial #solidstate

BMW is forced to pay additional 38.1% tariff because Mini is made by Great Wall motors in China. EU commission is hurting their local brand instead of China brand. Why? Below is an example calculation of three models including NIO and BMW. ⚡#NIO pays total 31% (10%+21%) and still lower than #BMW Mini 📖 Source https://lnkd.in/g6_Q3Aas #IONAXS #CleanMobility #eMobility #ElectricCars  #FutureMobility #Batteries #Automotive  #ElectricVehicles #AutonomousVehicles  #EV #Lithium #Innovation #Sustainability  #Recycling #Future #Energy #Efficiency #Technology #AVEVAI #TomTsogt 🔔👍

Exciting News in Battery Innovation: SSB: Solid-state batteries are making waves in the electric vehicle (EV) industry, promising enhanced efficiency and performance. OEM's Test Result: In rigorous testing conducted by Volkswagen-owned PowerCo, the solid-state cell exceeded expectations, maintaining an impressive 95 percent capacity after over 1,000 charging cycles. This translates to a potential mileage of over 300,000 miles for EVs with a 300-mile range. The Japanese automaker’s promise of a solid-state battery capable of over 621 miles starting in 2027 is what made some critics swallow their words after years of bashing the company’s feet-dragging approach to electrification. Now, though, it seems like the promise of care-free electric driving for hundreds of miles without recharging #batteryinnovation #electricvehicles #volkswagen #QuantumScape #toyota #idemitsu #sustainabilitymatters #futuremobility

Tokyo, JAPAN -- December 06, 2024 TOYOTA’s Groundbreaking EV: 1,200-km Range, 10-min Charge -- TOYOTA Solid-state Battery Breakthrough! Under the banner “let’s change the future of cars,” Toyota Motor Corporation (Toyota) has announced a range of a new technologies that will support its transformation into a mobility company. At a technical briefing in Japan, Hiroki Nakajima, Executive Vice President and Chief Technology Officer, explained Toyota’s technology strategy and the future direction of car manufacturing. He also talked about specific and diverse technologies, including concepts currently under development, that will help Toyota achieve the vision and policies it has communicated. He was joined by Takero Kato, president of Toyota’s new BEV production centre, and Mitsumasa Yamagata, who is scheduled to become president of the company’s hydrogen factory, to be launched in July. They provided more detail on their respective strategies for the battery EV and hydrogen businesses. https://lnkd.in/e3FeW-ZU

With an estimated range of over 1,000 KM, the new solid-state batteries developed by Honda will be 50% smaller, 35% lighter and 25% cheaper to manufacture than current liquid-based lithium-ion cells. https://lnkd.in/gmtNiN33

⚡What are the consequences of legacy OEMs' hesitations in electrification?⚡ ➡️ “Before, their brand power was undisputed, but now Chinese consumers are looking around and finding other options that exist,” ➡️ “The unavoidable reality is that battery-electric vehicles achieve top performance in a much more cost-effective way.” ➡️ “Walking away from EVs means walking away from China,” ➡️ “China sets the pace for the future of premium cars. Brands that fail to excel in software and EV performance will not only lose market share in China but face similar issues in Europe and the U.S. over time.” Pedro Pacheco quotes In Automotive News Image - In December 2023, #Xiaomi introduced electric motors named HyperEngine V6, V6s, and V8s, reminiscent of traditional internal combustion engine (ICE) V6 and V8 designations. These motors were developed for the SU7. Ricardo Oliveira World Shopper | #GetReadyForTheFuture
