Honda is gearing up to introduce its first electric vehicle featuring solid-state batteries by the end of the decade, according to reports. These next-generation batteries are touted to be 50% smaller, 35% lighter, and 25% cheaper to produce than current lithium-ion cells, while also being safer and capable of faster charging.
One of the standout features of Honda’s solid-state batteries is their potential driving range of up to 620 miles (1,000 km) on a single charge—nearly double that of many mass-market EVs today. By 2040, Honda aims to extend this range to 776 miles (1,250 km) while further reducing the size, weight, and cost of the batteries.
Honda has already established a pilot production facility to refine the process of manufacturing solid-state batteries on a mass scale. Test production is set to commence soon.
