Solid-state batteries promise to transform EVs. So why aren't they already powering millions of electric cars? The biggest obstacle may not be the battery chemistry anymore—it's manufacturing them reliably at automotive scale.

Solid-state batteries could deliver higher energy density, improved safety, faster charging, and potentially longer life than today's conventional lithium-ion EV batteries.

But there's a massive difference between building a battery cell in a laboratory and manufacturing tens of thousands of identical, automotive-grade cells every day.

In this episode of Silicon to Software, Imran Valiani examines the engineering and manufacturing challenges keeping solid-state battery technology from reaching mass-market electric vehicles.

We break down the  ...
