Shape‐persistent molecular triangles comprising three electron‐deficient, electronically coupled naphthalenediimide units provide a unique scaffold for stable electrochemical redox reactions and fast ion diffusion in the solid state. On page 2907, J. F. Stoddart and co‐workers demonstrate the high rate performance of these lightweight active materials for advancing the state of rechargeable organic lithium‐ion batteries.
