Tesla's "Revolutionary" 4680 Has A Massive Problem
25 Sep 2023 | Abstracted from Medium
"So Tesla's "revolutionary battery pack" is far from what Musk indicated. In fact, it seems like this project is going nowhere fast...recent teardown by Sandy Munro...found that the 4680 cells had a 100% graphite anode, a high cobalt concentration, and an energy density of only 244 Wh/kg...this lower energy density has a knock-on effect...it is still miles off Tesla's goal of $60 per kWh."
