Israeli startup StoreDot that makes 30 Seconds Battery Charging using bioorganic technology, has raised another $18 million to help fund a new electric vehicle business unit.
The company raised $32 million just a year ago to refine its core FlashBattery technology, which it says will be able to recharge a smartphone in just seconds. This time the money will go toward developing a prototype battery for electric cars, with the aim of creating what it called the “first-ever instantly charging car prototype” by 2020.
