Who's paying you to downplay what was actually announced? 1)56% reduction in cost (which blows way past the $100/kwh holy grail for EV to sub $40). This by itself is insane and most people in the industry thought it wont happen for at least another decade. This puts the last nail in the coffin for the future of ICE cars. 2) 54% increase in range. The new Model S will have minimum 520mi of range and much more actually when they start production. Range anxiety gone out the window. 3) New manufacturing tech along with vertical integration will allow Tesla to scale 55x their current rate of production and become the world's largest auto manufacturer by many multiples. Tesla will not only produce their own battery cells but they're even getting into mining!! Along with many other things announced in 3+ hour technical video. But yea 16% density improvement is the only takeaway from this... Edit: I like how you're editing your original comment after I've already replied without any mention of it. Please practice honest forum etiquette. |
