Not sure about the exact numbers, but your sentiment is basically accurate.

This is an article about the Northvolt news by a German journalist specialized on battery technology (in German): https://www.golem.de/news/akkutechnik-northvolt-und-altris-e...

He says that 160 Wh/kg is in the ballpark of LFP batteries from five years ago. It is, however, about the same as the sodium batteries announced by CATL in 2021.

This would be a way better article about the topic, than the press release by Northvolt, if it wouldn't be in german.

Frank Wunderlich-Pfeiffer should consider writing in english, I love his expertise and clarity of writing.
