It was funny a decade ago, now it’s no longer funny… but it’s still completely relevant. Battery bullshit is still as prevalent as ever.
Toyota, for example, is seemingly trying to outdo Musk’s “self driving next year” claims with their own “solid state batteries next year” claims. Toyota have been making these promises for nearly a decade now, and it looks like Musk’s lies will come true before Toyota ever ships a single solid state battery to a customer.
