My understanding is that the there’s less, and potentially no, cobalt. Double checking, it looks like they haven’t made the composition public (and also haven’t finalized it). I guess we’ll have to wait and see for the environmental point (benefits of increased usage aside).
- Reason077 1y agoLess cobalt would certainly certainly be a win. But note that the majority of the world's EVs shipping today already have cobalt-free batteries in the form of LFP. But even if they're not cobalt-free and not cheaper, if Toyota have managed to combine NMC's energy density with LFP's safety profile and cycle life, that's a win already.
- nomel 1y agoOh wow, that was a quick change!
