Stellantis, the parent of Dodge, and Factorial announced a partnership to bring solid-state battery technology to reality with the 2027 Charger Daytona EV.

Stellantis is working with a Massachusetts firm on the project. Solid-state batteries are believed to have key advantages over today's lithium-ion.

Stellantis and Factorial have just announced plans to test a fleet of Dodge Charger Daytona EVs with solid-state batteries starting next year.

The technology will face real-world testing in 2026 in a fleet of electric Chargers, which may get the eagerly awaited solid-state cells closer to production readiness.

A fleet of Dodge Charger Daytona electric vehicles fitted with solid-state batteries developed in partnership with America's Factorial will start testing on public roads by 2026, Dodge parent company Stellantis announced on Wednesday.

Less than two years after Stellantis launches its first EVs the automaker's looking to test solid-state batteries.

Stellantis NV plans to operate a test fleet of electric vehicles powered with solid-state batteries in two years’ time, taking a step toward potential commercialization of a technology that’s aimed at improving EV performance.

A demonstration fleet of Dodge Charger Daytona EVs with Factorial solid state batteries is expected to reach the road in 2026.

Stellantis is furthering its partnership with solid-state battery company Factorial to test its promising new cells in 2026.
