Toyota In Collaboration to Mass Produce Cathode Materials for All-Solid-State Batteries
London, October 08, 2025, (Oilandgaspress) –– Sumitomo Metal Mining Co., Ltd. and Toyota Motor Corporation have entered into a joint development agreement for the mass production of cathode materials for all-solid-state batteries to be installed in battery electric vehicles (BEVs). The two companies will advance development through this collaboration.
All-solid-state batteries, which are primarily composed of a cathode, anode, and solid electrolyte, are a next-generation battery technology that offers the potential for smaller size, higher output, and longer life compared to current liquid-based batteries that use electrolyte solutions. When used in BEVs, all-solid-state batteries are expected to deliver enhanced performance, such as longer driving range, shorter charging times, and higher output. Toyota is aiming for a market launch of BEVs with all-solid-state batteries in 2027-28.
Both companies will continue to develop various areas such as improving the performance, quality, and safety of cathode materials for all-solid-state batteries, as well as reducing costs for mass production. They aim to achieve the world’s first practical use of all-solid-state batteries in BEVs, potentially changing the future of automobiles and helping realize a carbon-neutral society.
