The first solid state batteries in EV’s will start from 2025!

The executive vice president of SAIC, MG’s parent company, stated that the automaker will begin introducing solid state battery (SSB) technology into its line-up as early as next year. Speaking at the Chengdu motor show last week, Yu Jingmin discussed a new solid state battery technology that has been developed in-house and is planned to be introduced to numerous upcoming EV models from SAIC brands, including premium offering IM and the more affordable Wuling volume brands in China.

Toyota, for example, has previously said that it hopes to bring similar technology to market by 2028, while Volkswagen has partnered with US research company QuantumScape. The pair have said they have reached an agreement to industrialize the technology, but no actual timelines have been set.
