Curious if it’s all hype or several years or decades
we already have a clear timeline: Toyota has said (source: FT: https://www.ft.com/content/6224f235-568c-4e2f-8247-e7dacf0ef20c) that its SSBs will be produced “by 2027 or 2028”.
But - BUT! - that doesn’t mean the SSBs will be affordable enough or produced at a sufficiently large scale to go into its affordable cars in 2027/28. that level of affordability could take several more years beyond 2027.
