Here is today's new battery tech: This company plans to make 3D printed solid-state lithium batteries that are claimed to have 2 to 3 times more power density than current lithium batteries. I hope you won't mind if I don't hold my breath until these new batteries hit the consumer market:

Interesting I saw something on google about this yesterday. If they can pull it off it would bring costs of evs down and ranges up. That's always been the weak link in EVs is the batteries. But I'd imagine even if they achieved it would take many years of testing to bring it to market. I've never heard of Musashi before also O_o'

I just wish that every time I see one of these internet reports about new battery or motor designs, I wouldn't keep thinking that these startup companies are just trolling for dollars. ??? Lots of great tech has been floating around for the past 10 years or so, but none of it seems to make it into the consumer market to my knowledge. We are still seeing vehicles powered by pretty much the same motors and lithium batteries that have been around for quite some time.
