Toyota (partnered with Panasonic) has already broken ground on a new battery plant in NC, maybe that's when they're expecting production to begin there?

No doubt Panasonic makes some of the best batteries in the world, and is a much more trustworthy name regarding batteries than Toyota.

Still the claims of the article are ridiculous, and I doubt Panasonic would make claims of a solid state battery half the weigh size and prize of current batteries within 2-4 years.
