There is usually atleast one "massive breakthrough" announcement per week on battery tech, and most of them are premature and fake. Well, scratch that, all of them are fake. These announcements are dime a dozen and generally made to dupe investors of their money. Most of these breakthroughs never come out of R&D stage.
BUT this one comes from CATL, the largest battery manufacturer from China. A very highly successful company. Also they claim they are ready to mass manufacture. So hopefully there is some truth to it and some real breakthrough comes out.

Could this new battery spell the end for EV range anxiety?
The world's largest battery maker says its new battery could power electric aircraft or propel electric vehicles beyond 1,000km on a single charge.

A thousand kilometers? Oh please. What is that in American, like, 50 miles?
No mention of lots of things. We're seeing several of these ultra-dense battery announcements.
Also, there's the use of "mass production", which can be use to fool people into thinking it's further along than it is.
For example, Tesla has mass production of its 4680s, but that doesn't mean it's successful.
Still, better they're made than just being a lab project. It's a very good sign.

All you need to know is that Supercharge.info would need much bigger range circles.

1/137 ?
I thought the answer was 42.
Duh !! of course. It has been staring at us all these millennia.. This is Battery 101.

Simplification is all well and good but I don't think it's wise to forget about "f".
Yes I was troubled about that too.
Because we all know “f” followed “u” is a powerful phrase that can’t be ignored.
