In the context of lithium-ion batteries, "solid state" means that there's no liquid electrolyte, rather than meaning there are no moving parts.

I doubt these are actually solid state, more likely hybrid solid state.

I agree. I’m very skeptical about their claims and so far I can’t find any evidence of 3rd party verification of anything. All the “news” about their batteries is just glorified press releases.
