So are they working on a new battery design?
The last time I did some research on the Tesla batteries it was just a ton of high-quality 18650s, is this still true?

- marvin 12y agoTesla still uses 18650 cells exclusively, unless I'm misinformed. They are still chemistry and form factor agnostic and only care about performance and price. This announcement is part of a plan to further reduce battery cell and battery pack cost, as well as increase production volumes by a factor of 10-50 over the next 10 years. I don't think there is any information on how these new batteries will look yet.
