This new battery that IBM is currently working on uses lithium-air cells. This new innovation allows a battery to store much more energy and achieve high energy density, all this while being lighter than conventional EV batteries. IBM hopes that it will be able to display a prototype of this new battery by 2013. However, an actual public model of the battery may come in within the next eight years, according to IBM. While EVs are still a very limited niche and very few users tool such vehicles, with the availability of this battery, the domain may expand, attracting more users to start using such vehicles.
