- 1BYD says its solid-state EV battery is nearly road-ready▼BYD Says Its New Solid-State EV Battery Tech Is Nearly Ready For The Open Road
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.
- 2High-mileage electric cars beat petrol rivals on reliability, study finds▼"High-mileage electric cars are more reliable than petrol ones, study finds" # Cars # Vehicles # EV # ElectricVehicles h
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.

- 7German recycling firm takes aim at Europe's China lithium reliance●Can this German company help end Europe’s lithium dependence on China? China produces up to 70% of the battery-grade lit
China currently supplies up to 70% of the battery-grade lithium chemicals used in Europe, and a German recycling company has opened a new plant it hopes will help cut that dependence. The company's process recovers lithium from batteries, though significant obstacles remain before it can make a real dent in imports. The project is being watched as a test case for Europe's broader push to secure homegrown supplies of critical raw materials for the electric vehicle and battery industries.
- 8Humanoid Robots, Not EVs, Will Test Solid-State Batteries First▼Solid-State Batteries' First Test Bed Is Humanoid Robots, Not EVs
Solid-state batteries, long tipped as the next breakthrough for electric vehicles, are being deployed first in humanoid robots, according to a new report. The reasoning is that robots offer a smaller, less price-sensitive market where the batteries' high energy density and safety benefits matter most, letting manufacturers iron out costs and production issues before tackling mass-market EVs.
