True, as far as big leaps go there hasn't mean anything since the introduction of lithium based batteries to the market.
Until now. This is it and they have production working. Safer than lithium. Longer lasting, quicker charging, should perform fine in extreme cold, more energy dense, and solid state.
The next big thing is finally here.
A giant name like samsung and the auto makers they've teamed up with like Toyota aren't going to bullshit about the batteries being in production. There's no benefit to doing so. It's not like they're trying to raise investment capital.
Yes they have. Not from this article, though. Same for Toyota. They announced a 2027(likely) solid state battery EV months ago.
As for "samsung didn't claim this", they put the battery on display at the trade show in Seoul, and it's been reported by tons of outlets. Samsung has very clearly announced it.
