Overview:

Electric Vehicles are a key part of our tomorrow and how we get there. If we can get all the fossil fuel vehicles off our roads, out of our seas and out of our skies, we'll have a much better environment. This community is where we discuss the various different vehicles and news stories regarding electric transportation.

Factorial’s advanced solid-state battery cells also proved ultra-fast charging from 15% to 90% in just 18 minutes

That sounds quite underwhelming for a solid-state battery. But the energy density is great (375 Wh/kg according to the article).

Last September, Mercedes-Benz drove a modified EQS over 745 miles (1,200 km) using Factorial’s solid-state battery cells.

It appears that mercedes is at least 6 month ahead with the implementation.

Yeah, I think they should post those in kWh and miles/km along with the percentages. Hyundai's 800V battery has been doing 10 to 80% for a while now. But that probably means less energy/autonomy gained.
