Chinese EV maker BYD says its new solid-state battery technology is nearly ready for real-world use, a step that could mean longer driving ranges, faster charging and improved safety over today's lithium-ion packs. Automakers worldwide are racing to commercialize solid-state cells, and BYD's claim puts it among the frontrunners.

A new study reported by The Guardian finds that used electric cars with high mileage are more reliable than comparable petrol vehicles, challenging a common assumption that EV batteries and motors wear out faster. The findings are being widely shared among drivers and environmental commentators, with many saying they strengthen the case for buying second-hand electric cars over combustion-engine models.
