No 4680 cells, its 2170.

Only the Model Ys that come out of the Texas factory have 4680 cells, and their production volume is still ramping up.[1]

Still very cool, and it shows the single tab connection that's the bane of old cylindrical cells that the 4680 solves.

I do wish Samsung would already release some of them to the public ffs. Surely they can come up with a price that would beat what Tesla's offering for bulk and sell it on the open market.
