New Lexus LFA with GAME-CHANGING battery!

is working on some next-level electric and truck innovation that might alter the game forever … And it's all to do with !

However why is this technology so essential? Well for beginners, let's have a look at lithium-ion batteries.

Any electrical on our roadways in 2023 come including a lithium ion battery. And although they're included in any new electric and truck, they're not precisely ideal. Not only are they very big, but they likewise lose a little capacity each time you charge them. Not only that, but they fume when they're being charged, and they only provide peak power in a specific temperature window.

So that's where come in. They do not have any of these concerns, and their innovation assists to prevent getting too hot. What's more, whereas big lithium ion batteries can take hours to charge, solid-state batteries can charge much faster! They're likewise smaller sized and lighter, and electrical motors will have the ability to pull more power rapidly – assisting make cars and trucks powered by these batteries quicker!

So this technology sounds quite futuristic, however has been dealing with it for over ten years, and we might see strong state batteries faster than you believe! What's more, this own't just be in your standard family-friendly SUVs and saloons … It will also be consisted of in an all-new, all-electric replacement for the Lexus LFA !!

      Why did you have to add “with an electric car”? The LFA cant be topped full stop. As Jeremy Clarkson said, its so good, even Lexus themselves forgot how to make it again

    What you need to remember is how Toyota makes their cars. Toyota don’t innovate as much as they used to. What Toyota do now, is sit back, watch what their competitors make, analyse it and then make their own improved version, which almost always has worked in their favour.

      what do you mean by “as much as they used to”? like, late 2000s?
      their new force engine or whatever it’s called is pretty innovative and shows results as seen in GR Yaris, and their newer hybrids are quite advanced. they also did the steer by wire in the new lexus and on

      A standard urban E-Bike weights about 22-25kg. I don’t know if a reduction of maybe 1-1.5kg is that much of a game changer

    It is an absolutely beautiful car, and like the first one, it’s not built for any NEEDS, but for wants. Ive wanted someone to throw a manual gearbox in an ev since the craze began, if you want me to buy an EV this is a step in the right direction. Its definitely a way to give the soul-less EV’s a little more life to them

    1. Enrique A Thiele Solivan Avatar
      Enrique A Thiele Solivan

      EV do not need multiple gears. They are needed on ICE cars, due to the torque curve. Electric motors have the same torque from 1 rpm to their maximun rpm’s. Adding that only ads more parts to fail, and more cost.

    2. Kasper Rombouts Avatar
      Kasper Rombouts

      @Enrique A Thiele Solivanno that’s not why electric cars don’t need a second gear and your completely wrong about the torque curve ever heard of back emf ? Electric motors have instant torque keep that torque for a while and then it drops down

    3. Jonas Weber Avatar

      If you convert to EV a car you can keep the gears

      @EnriqueThiele  i know they arent needed, but its more engaging for the driver to have them, thats why i said “it wasnt built for needs, it was built for wants”

    Curious. Last time I’ve heard, Toyota was planning on selling first cars with SSB’s in 2023. Now it’s 2025. Is it another ever-moving goalpost?

    1. Jonas Weber Avatar

      Yes because it’s not even a tech ready for market. They use this car IMO as a flagship to interest customers and investors…

      @Carlos Leon when you look at the prototype there’s 2 black thingies on the hood near the headlamp, those are aerocatch it’s like a hoodpin or connector for body panels

    Lithium-ion batteries were developed by Akira Yoshino of Asahi Kasei Corporation. All-solid-state batteries are also being developed and researched by Toyota Motor Corporation, Panasonic Corporation, Tokyo Institute of Technology, and others.

      “no one is near them at the moment”

      Where are you getting that from? They do exist, they just arent in production/up for sale in cars yet. But they have been made and are being tested now for cars but the first actual concept solid state batteries were made way back in the late 1800s. It’s only within the last 10 or so years that the tech has progressed to the point where they could be a viable replacement

      The Estrema Fulminea, an italian Hypercar, uses solid state batteries (produced by ABEE and Imecar Elektronik) combined with ultra-capacitors. The project has been unveiled in 2021 and they’re starting production next month. The batteries have an energy density of 450 Wh/kg, which translates to only 300kg for a 100kWh battery.

      Billions of dollars are spent globally into development of this new hardware. Breakthroughs will happen. But nobody can put a date on the first phase rollout of a final product yet.

    I drove a electrified Lotus Elise with a manual already 20 years ago. Such a thrill. The engine was making a lot of noise and the gearbox did really speed up the acceleration (first was faster then 4th for example). But you could drive away in 4th if you would like. I found it such a cool thing, despite in these days electric cars feel so boring to me.

    I’ve had this same idea for a simulated manual transmission for years. Similar to how a digital guitar amplifier can simulate the tones of various tube amps, I have always thought that it should be possible to have an EV simulate the torque curves of various ICE engines. I even had the idea that you can simulate a stall. Imagine being able to select your car modeling the experience of an N/A vs turbo vs supercharged in a flat-6, V8 or V12. I am astounded that Toyota/Lexus is actually doing this. I should have patented my idea. I wonder if they will also simulate in-cabin engine sounds. If done properly, and with improvement over the years, it could be so good as to be close to indistinguishable from the real experience. Even if not, I am so glad someone is out there thinking about preserving the driving experience in future cars. I honestly thought it would be Porsche that would do something like this first.
