Fisker, the luxury electric auto startup founded by renowned designer and former Tesla consultant Henrik Fisker, claims it's developed a breakthrough that could knock Tesla off its perch as the world's premier electric carmaker - and many completely change the way we use batteries in the process. Supposedly the new battery technology will allow for 500 miles per charge and can be recharged in less than one minute. This sounds well and good, but it's not supposed to be ready until "post 2023". Pie in the sky or real technology?
The upstart company filed patents for a new solid-state battery design that would give its cars some truly astonishing performance capabilities. Fisker says the new batteries will give its vehicles a range of more than 500 miles per charge, with the capability to power up in less than one minute.
