Writer and occasional reluctant perpetrator of engine swaps, James O'Neil is a malaise era enthusiast and also fascinated by the many ways the auto industry has since recovered from those dark days.

Solid-state batteries have the potential to make EVs far more affordable and practical, but their commercial development has a record of false promises that would make Tesla's full self-driving blush.

We’ve been hearing all about how solid-state batteries are coming soon, but now it looks like automakers are ready to put the latest battery tech into action. It seems like we’ve been hearing about ...

The state of the art for solid-state batteries (SSBs). How the market is trending and why preparing now for SSBs makes sense. Engineering tips that can support development and implementation of SSBs.

The concept certainly has promise, and would indeed remove pretty much all of the issues with EV's people have today. But range anxiety has a secondary issue having to do with the availability of ...

All-solid-state batteries face major hurdles from electrode volume changes that generate stress and compromise long-term stability. Here, authors demonstrate cobalt-based metal-organic frameworks that ...

Applying high stack pressure is primarily done to address the mechanical failure issue of solid-state batteries. Here, the authors propose a mechanical optimization strategy involving elastic ...
