Third generation batteries are needed

Most of today's pure electric vehicles and those announced for the next few years offer only 100 miles range. Ask a roomful of people if they would buy a car with that range and usually no hands go up.

Electric Vehicles in East Asia

The Western media obsess about electric cars to be made in the West, many of them being both overpriced and underperforming in global terms. This misses the fact that 56% of the value of sales of electric vehicles is and will remain in East Asia and cars only account for about half of the value of the electric vehicle business worldwide.
