    650 miles from one charge - Volvo's parent company beats Tesla to the
    punch with first production-ready solid-state battery

    There is no word on which brand will be the first to receive the
    technology, but Geely's solid-state battery is claimed to offer an
    energy density of 400 Wh/kg. This is significantly more than the
    200-300 Wh/kg that today's lithium-ion batteries with liquid
    electrolytes offer.

    Geely will start production of solid-state battery tech this year

    The next two years are going to be huge for electric vehicles, with
    max range and charging speeds set to make a quantum leap over the
    coming 24 months.
