Toyota claimed it had made a “technological breakthrough” to resolve durability issues and “a solution for materials” that would allow an EV powered by a solid-state battery to have a range of 1,200km and charging time of 10 minutes or less.

I'll believe it when I see it.

I hope they make it happen, but battery claims like this have been popping up for 2 decades.

It’s also surprising when Toyota had all their R&D into hydrogen cell until very very recently

Yeah exactly. It sounds to good to be true

Batterys have been getting substantially better for 2 decades as well.

It does sound a bit like they’re playing catch up in the EV market and this is them trying to stay relevant in the news.
