"Not for much longer, though, as multiple automakers are racing to bring them to the market. Stellantis and Factorial said that a demonstration fleet of solid-state-powered Dodge Charger Daytona EVs will hit the road next year. But now China's Dongfeng has upped the ante. It's the latest Chinese carmaker to say solid-state is coming sooner than expected. The automaker said that its first production EV powered by a new generation of solid-state batteries will hit the road next September."
"Dongfeng's new battery has a stated energy density of 350 watt-hours/kilogram, whereas Stellantis' upcoming pack is touted as offering 375 Wh/kg. In other words, not the best in terms of energy density, but not too shabby either.
