Toyota says it has found a breakthrough in solid-state battery technology that would revolutionize the EV industry, yet details are scarce.

The Japanese automakers notoriously released the first mass-produced hybrid ever with the Toyota Prius back in the late '90s. Although they implemented electric batteries into their vehicles long before other big-name brands, they have been surprisingly late to the game when it comes to fully electric vehicles (EV). Companies like Ford, Tesla, General Motors, Hyundai, and many more have all released multiple electric vehicles into the market while Toyota has just recently unveiled its first EV. The Toyota bZ4X is an electric SUV crossover that is expected to arrive later this year. While it seems like they are finally catching up in the EV race, the automakers need to do something that propels them past their competition. Toyota's engineers may have found the answer to this with new solid-state battery technology.
