> While allowing competition for batteries is a good idea, I fear that it'll go the way of printer ink cartridges or the Keurig. That came to mind also, though "OEMs to sell batteries separately or with subscription models" might just of covered that aspect. Batteries are already standard cell sizes, it's the packaging of those cells that makes things interesting. Now will they end up standardising that aspect across cars is the crux here. Certainly be interesting how this all pans out.
