Toyota wants to be an EV game changer too
Toyota may be committed to saving the internal combustion engine, but it also wants to make headway in the electric vehicle market. At the moment, it is making baby steps towards expanding its EV lineup, but that might soon change.
Recently, MG, under SAIC’s wing, announced that its ready to roll outs solid-state batteries before the end of 2025. It’s a huge claim, but the gauntlet has been thrown in the race to be the first to produce these. Not to be outdone, Toyota has also released a statement regarding its progress on solid-state batteries.Mazda CX-6e trademark hints EV or REV version of CX-60Initially, Toyota said it will have these batteries ready by 2027.
“ is an equipment-intensive industry requiring large-scale investments in significant facilities. To maintain and enhance manufacturing capabilities and technologies within Japan's battery industry, which includes equipment industries and material manufacturers, government support is provided,” said Toyota. Toyota adds that initial production will be limited but be ramped up by 2027 and beyond.
It is said that Toyota will not install these batteries in a full electric vehicle as it might be too expensive for consumers. It has been reported that it will instead put these in hybrid vehicles to further improve its electric-only range in EV mode. Should Toyota produce more of these, it might drive down costs for series production to allow more vehicle types to use this technology.
