Honda has begun production of solid-state batteries for electric vehicles.

The Japanese automaker is using the pilot line to test manufacturing methods and work through known challenges like electrolyte stability and cell durability.

Honda 's decision to prioritize manufacturing validation and capability, rather than another performance claim, shows a huge difference in approach.

Honda is using a roll-pressing process on its pilot production line to compress solid electrolyte layers with greater consistency.

The goal is to improve uniform contact between materials across the cell structure.

Honda hopes that its solid-state batteries will be used in future EV models, with a goal of applying the technology to next-generation vehicles by the latter half of the 2020s .
