As if that were not enough, the new technology should also drastically reduce charging times. According to the University of Michigan, a lithium metal battery that normally takes 20 to 50 hours to charge up completely can be brought back up to full power in less than three hours with the new technology. Although lithium ion batteries can be charged up quickly, it “inevitably leads to them dying”. With lithium metal batteries, on the other hand, there is no obvious decline in output.
Lithium ion batteries are currently fitted in all standard electric vehicles,
