Toyota claims to have made a breakthrough in battery technology that will allow it to create batteries that offer a range of 735 miles on a single charge, DigitalTrendsThe carmaker said it also aims to build a battery that will give an electric car up to 900 miles of range.
Therefore, electric vehicle manufacturers have favoured conventional batteries with a porous plastic membrane that allows the liquid electrolyte solution to flow between the cathode and anode. This could be a game changer for EV makers, allowing their vehicles to offer a significantly increased range.
According to Toyota, the first generation of its solid-state batteries will offer 735 miles of range and charge to full in around ten minutes.
