What is Toyota producing batteries for? Vehicles. What is Tesla producing batteries for? Vehicles, charging network, home storage, business storage, small grid storage, large scale grid storage, and probably other things. Tesla is shooting to become an energy company that maybe still makes cars while Toyota is an automotive manufacturer with no known intentions of getting into energy. Comparing the two based on batteries produced is like comparing a banana to an iPhone.
- panick21 5y agoCars are the overwhelming majority of batteries produced. Supercharging doesn't need batteries. I don't have exact number but my guess is that of all Tesla consumed batteries 80-90% is far cars. So even if you take a much more absurdly optimistic assumptions, the announced package for Toyota is only 1-2 million cars. That is 20% of their output in cars today.
