    1: it really does seem that competition is heating up across the world in the battery space. I’m especially interested in what happens with battery miniaturization. I want my 2 week phone charge!

    2: goddamn are 1st and 2nd gen EVs gonna depreciate hard. Can’t wait to buy a taycan for $5 in 2028

    The problem I have with all of this …Is we are already at the limit for charging at home. It is not the car battery it is the capacity of the home power connections. And… the high capacity DC charging systems are not as prevalent as needed.

    Today it is about the chargers, not so much the battery.

    Yes a dramatically more efficient car will help… but these articles are all about batteries - and every bit does help. These articles I believe slow down adoption, by leading people to think a great improvement is just around the corner… “I better wait”
