JAKARTA - Toyota, an automotive manufacturer from Japan, has revealed the latest details about their electrification plan in Japan with the slogan "Let's Change the Future of Cars".

In the announcement, Toyota is committed to delivering more advanced technologies than current models, including enhanced-performance batteries.

Toyota also plans to offer a variety of battery pack variants, so they can provide electric cars (EVs) at affordable but better performance. One of the offers they offer is lithium iron phosphate (LFP) bipolar technology, which promises better performance at lower costs.

According to Toyota's official website, Tuesday, June 13, the manufacturer is targeting an increase in cruising power of up to 20 percent, a cost reduction of up to 40 percent, and fast charging in about 30 minutes, which is better than the bZ4X electric SUV.

Toyota will also develop a Performance-type battery, which offers a cruising range of up to 1,000 km. This will address Toyota's concerns about high-performance batteries and above-average efficiency.

Even so, Toyota has not provided many details about battery performance for the future. They only mentioned that there will be a battery variant that is 20 percent cheaper than bZ4X, with the ability to charge from 10 to 80 percent in about 20 minutes, in a square form.

For customers who want more than that, Toyota is also developing a high performance lithium-ion bipolar battery. The battery is scheduled to launch in 2027 and 2028, taking advantage of the standard battery advantage.

In addition, Toyota aims to deliver solid-state batteries that are ready to be sold in 2027 or 2028. They estimate these solid-state batteries will provide an increase in cruising power of 20 percent compared to their Performance batteries, reaching 1,200 km. This battery also allows charging from 10 to 80 percent in about 10 minutes, approaching vehicle refueling speeds with an internal combustion engine.

And if that's not enough, Toyota is working on a solid-state battery with higher specifications, which could provide a 50 percent more cruising range than the Performance battery, which is about 1,500 km.
