Mercedes-Benz Wants Solid-State Cells, Hopes Factorial Energy Can Deliver Them

Mercedes-Benz has just joined its Japanese competitors by making a deal with Factorial Energy. The main goal of this agreement is to start testing solid-state cells produced by the American SSB startup as soon as next year.
