This is exciting. 1500 km range on an EV is just what we need at this time. We need to move off oil ASAP. Obviously ranges of 500 km are not bad either, but this is better. #EV #Automotive #Technology https://www.ft.com/content/1773de37-2595-4d9f-9536-dbe03ff1f8d3?syn-25a6b1a6=1&fbclid=IwY2xjawRWKXBleHRuA2FlbQIxMABicmlkETFlTUdzZzJYcDREeVNKempic3J0YwZhcHBfaWQQMjIyMDM5MTc4ODIwMDg5MgABHu8UZ_znWMz489RzKEtqqsmiDbVOfXqGKv5h6QxSTFiK4lwMfGKdL5mWEKuO_aem_jfT7ZvuVRZZi6bl-eer2fQ

  • @jon And here in the US (and many other countries), we need better and safer pedestrian, bicycle, and public transit infrastructure. This would go a long way in keeping people out of cars.

  • @jon ah, thought so, this is the company that's working on sodium ion tech with toyota. this is exciting: > The new Naxtra Sodium-ion Battery also marks CATL’s transition from laboratory breakthrough to large-scale manufacturing following what the company describes as “systematically overcoming hundreds of engineering challenges”.

    @jon a 1500km range EV is nice but what we need is a lot of EV quickly, and given the resources constraints, we should focus on making small affordable ones.
