WardsAuto Podcast: Solid-State Batteries and Consumers’ EV Fears

On the WardsAuto Podcast, we discuss solid-state batteries, falling battery prices and a report on consumer sentiment on battery-electric vehicles.

Battery-electric-vehicle sales continue to grow, while prices fall. And progress with technology that will provide far greater range is getting more traction.
