a solid-state battery with a range of 1,200km (745 miles) that could charge in 10 minutes or less

For that range I assume the battery holds 150 Wh/km * 1200 km = 180 kWh. Charging it in 10 minutes would require about 1.1 MW. That's a lot of Watts.

Probably not viable for the home, but maybe a super capacitor at service stations.
