This is the best tl;dr I could make, [original](https://www.nbcnews.com/business/autos/could-new-battery-slash-cost-electric-car-n1107881) reduced by 70%. (I’m a bot)

> Phoenix-based Nikola Motors may have found what its CEO describes as the "Holy Grail of batteries," an alternative to today's lithium-ion technology that could double the distance a battery-electric vehicle can travel between charges, while cutting battery costs in half.
> Several technologies appear to offer promise, including "Solid state" batteries that replace the chemical slurry in lithium-ion batteries with a ceramic material.
> Toyota is just one of the automakers sponsoring research into solid state technology which, proponents claim, could drop the price of an automotive battery from somewhere between $120 and $145 per kilowatt-hour today to less than $70, and perhaps as low as $50.Driving down battery costs will be critical to achieving parity between EVs and gas-powered vehicles – something many auto industry watchers say could happen by the middle of the decade.
