In addition to the Toyota Hydrogen stuff in a prior post, this Toyota EV target looks much more promising and ready for production ... by around 2027.
600 mile range would pretty much get rid of my range anxiety.

Many have viewed Toyota as being behind the curve on EV adoption, but Toyota has just detailed its battery technology roadmap, promising 600-mile EVs with 10-minute recharge times from 2027 thanks to solid-state battery technology. Before this, 500-mile EVs are promised in 2026, and further down the line, Toyota believes its EVs will achieve 745 miles on a charge.

Unfortunately, but understandably, it'll be in the more expensive cars first.

The High-Performance Li-ion technology will launch around 2027-2028 and combines the bipolar technology with lithium-ion chemistry. This will represent one of the biggest leaps forward in battery technology as it aims to reduce costs by a further 10% compared to the Performance battery, mimic that tech's 20-minute recharge times, and afford 600 miles of range on a charge. This battery tech will likely feature in the Lexus LFR - the electric LFA successor.
