Good Article On Solid State Batteries From InsideEVs

In case you missed it...

TL;DR - They are here (sort of), still have issues to sort out, but there are nice improvements to existing lithium-ion as well - like a claimed 0% to 100% charge in 90 seconds.

I don't know where SS batteries will be by the time I'm ready to upgrade, but I am hoping for some larger leap in battery tech by the time I do.

Then again, I might buy a 2025 later next year if I feel like it. So, who knows? Really, if the Ioniq 5 N came down in price a little bit (and the good colors weren't only available in a matte finish), I'd probably consider that too.

E: Oh, man, I forgot about the Rivian R3 too. Really want to see more about that little guy. I doubt it'll have a performance version though (at least not a "street" performance version - more like a rally version with the R3X).
