Toyota’s Solid State EV Battery is On Track for 2025, Promises 900 Miles of Range Alongside Panasonic

Electric vehicles have made a revolution in changing the world, but now, it is seeing a change from Toyota with regards to better battery developments, centering on a solid-state EV power cell with improved capabilities. Toyota has tapped Panasonic to co-develop the solid-state batteries and is now looking to improve them to achieve 900 miles of range.

Currently, Toyota is on track for its first solid-state batteries to arrive by 2025, with better capabilities to arrive in the future.

Toyota is On Track to Deliver its Solid-State Battery by 2025

Toyota announced at a technical briefing earlier this July that it is set to develop solid-state batteries for its future vehicles, with a breakthrough in creating one that brings 745 miles of range. The company previously claimed that it is on track for this to arrive by 2025, first focusing on the limited production of its new power cells.

Solid-state batteries are the future, and this is because what separates its anode and cathode is also its electrolytes that create the current that brings power from the battery. Unlike conventional batteries which still see a separator between its anode and cathode where electrons flow.

This solid-state batteries are regarded to have a more energy-dense battery that can be fitted in smaller sizes.

Toyota, Panasonic Working to Achieve 900 Miles of Range

Back in 2021, Toyota announced its work with Panasonic to deliver its solid-state batteries, flaunting its development of this new type of power cell.

In the earlier briefing, Toyota claimed that it is set to bring 745 miles of range from the solid-state batteries, but it is looking at a larger goal of pushing it to 900 miles on a single charge.

Toyota's Development of EV Batteries

One of the most renowned vehicle companies in the world, Toyota, is looking to develop its batteries with Panasonic, and the company wants larger numbers of range on a single charge. Among its initial plans is to create a battery that is capable of outputting 1,000 kilometers or 621 miles on a single charge for its EVs.

Earlier this year, Toyota confirmed that it is starting its US-based EV manufacturing to bring the company's clean energy developments to the western hemisphere. The company sets its sights on Kentucky for the electric car plant that would deliver the EVs, and have a separate battery factory over in North Carolina.

Batteries are a significant component needed in electric vehicles as it powers everything inside these cars, from their electric motors, down to their premium features inside and outside the cabin. Solid-state batteries are the future, says Toyota, and while it extends the range for the EV, it also brings a higher power output, with a limited production arriving by 2025.
