"Unlike lithium, sodium is cheap and abundant" Lithium is the 25th most common element on Earth, the key issue is distribution (where it is located) and extraction cost (low density deposits). Additionally sodium-ion batteries operate more efficiently at lower temperature than Lithium-ion, with obvious benefits for vehicles and machinery in colder climates
