In a few years, Toyota will begin selling EVs using solid-state batteries all around the world.

 They have a "very good" life expectancy, a remarkable range, and quick charging.

India's Gandhinagar An official stated on Thursday at an investment meeting in India that Japan's Toyota Motor will introduce cars with solid-state batteries that charge more quickly and last longer to the worldwide market in a few years.


Solid-state batteries hold the potential to significantly increase the driving range of electric cars (EVs), which is a crucial component of Toyota's June strategic shift to catch up to Chinese competitors like BYD and Tesla in the EV race.

All-solid-state batteries are what Toyota and oil refiner Idemitsu Kosan said last year they will work together to develop and mass produce. They want to go on sale in 2027 and 2028, then go into full-scale mass manufacturing.

"In a few years, we will begin introducing our electric cars with solid state batteries," stated Toyota Kirloskar Motor's India director, Vikram Gulati. The result "will be a vehicle which will be charging in 10 minutes, giving a range of 1,200 kms (750 miles) and life expectancy will be very good" .

Speaking at the Vibrant Gujarat Global Summit, Gulati discussed how the Indian government is focusing on luring more capital to expand EV production capacity in the third-largest auto market in the world.

Japan's Suzuki Motor said at the beginning of the summit on Wednesday that Maruti Suzuki, a Toyota partner and its Indian subsidiary, will be exporting the group's first battery-electric vehicle (EV) to Europe and Japan, which will be Maruti's maiden export to the home nation of its parent business.

About 2% of cars sold in India last year were electric models, but the government wants that number to rise to 30% by 2030. The country's minister of road transport predicted at the summit that by then, 10 million EVs will be sold annually in India.

Regarding Toyota's intentions for solid-state batteries in India, Gulati stated that the automaker has a range of environmentally friendly technological choices that would vary according to the nation, market, and consumer preferences.

"Right now, for India, flex fuel and ethanol can be a no-brainer right away," he stated.

In response to demands from Japanese automakers, India's commerce department has supported reducing tariffs on hybrid cars to aid in the switch to cleaner energy sources, according to Reuters.

According to Gulati, the Indian government had to think about implementing a carbon-based vehicle tax system, which would make it more egalitarian and independent of technology.

Three essentially tuned special editions of the G90 BMW M5 are already available, and it's not even out yet.

  Everyone and their mother (who is passionate about Bavaria's automotive expertise) believes that BMW will eventually release the G90 M5, a four-door sedan, perhaps in the summer. The M5 Touring will also make a return to the BMW family for the first time since the E61. The really good news is that, in spite of the Mercedes-AMG E 63 S E Performance and Audi RS 6 Avant, the saloon and station wagon will be offered in America.   Furthermore, similar to the BMW XM Label Red, the next BMW M5 will have a hybridized V8 powertrain with over 700 horsepower, enabling both high acceleration and zero emissions. But make sure you emphasize the word "heavy" because the upcoming M5 is expected to weigh a lot because of its electrified drivetrain. Given all of the constant spying and teasing, it stands to reason that the creative community that creates digital vehicle entertainment is also rather fond of the G90 BMW M5. Hell, a few of these pixel-art masters have even grown roman...

2025 Dodge Charger Daytona Unveiled for the First Time

Image
Dodge gives us a look at an improved pre-production vehicle more than a year after revealing the Charger Daytona SRT Concept.  2025 Dodge Charger Daytona Unveiled for the First TimeDodge has almost given us a grief tour since the Charger and Challenger that we are familiar with have been put to pasture. Top brass warned us that the day would come, which sparked rage and denial; they created a limited edition of Last Call models to give a fitting farewell, which was a component of the negotiating process; and in December, after more than ten years, manufacturing of the V8-powered vehicles finally came to a stop, triggering a depression. Let's see whether showcasing the brand-new, electric, two-door Charger Daytona brings about a wave of acceptance. Based on the remarks left under Dodge's Instagram announcement, I assume we have some way to go before we truly get out of this funk. People are generally happy that the Charger will soon be available in two doors again, but for the t...
