Always read SCMP with a skeptical eye. And some of this technology still seems theoretical for a practical use in vehicles. But the cost savings is amazing if nearly true.
Reading this and a few other articles, it seems like a honest to goodness flashover point is getting much closer on EV adoption if these cost, charge times, and ranges even get to 80% reality.

Nah, overcapacity and 250% tariffs for you.
Is this lab results or scaleable mass production proven ….
The former is nothing to get excited about, if it’s a latter this going to be great for Home ESS.
We really need pack cost to be 40$/kwh. 20kwh battery for 800$ would be game changer. Of course it needs to be plug n play but that is happening in the German and European balcony markets .
The average American home uses 30kwh so with 20kwh and solar roof it can be fantastic for the duck curve !!!
