Honda Builds Demonstration Production Line for Solid-State Batteries

Honda Motor Co., Ltd. (HMC) has established a demonstration facility in Sakura City, Japan, to advance its efforts in mass-producing solid-state batteries. These batteries are expected to offer longer range and greater durability EVs at reduced costs. Unlike conventional lithium-ion batteries, solid-state batteries replace liquid electrolytes with dry conductive materials. This change promises increased energy density and extended battery life but also requires an entirely new production process.Numerous co ...
