Limited to Japanese manufacturers, Maxell, TDK, and Murata will begin shipping samples of mass-produced products in 2024. They are oxide-based and have very low output. They may be used for things like powering Bluetooth devices. In the automotive industry, Honda will start operating a pilot line at its Atsugi plant in 2024, and Nissan will start operating a pilot line at its Yokohama plant. Idemitsu Kosan has been operating a pilot line since July to start shipping samples of all-solid-state electrolytes, and it opened a second plant in September. Toyota, Nissan, and Honda all plan to announce vehicles equipped with all-solid-state batteries in 2027 and 2028. Some people believe that they will not be available to consumers until at least 2032. In any case, 2027 and 2028 are key years.

I still see too much of a mix regarding solid state batteries. More energy for the same size, better performance on different temperatures, more cycles, basically on a mobile phone where the batteries last 2 years would jump to 5.

But there is also news and reports that Solid batteries are having longevity issues, temperature issues, so I am no longer sure how good it will be, together with the higher price.
