Well, unless the issue is caused by some EMP weapon, your car should still have its battery working, I believe that is the idea. Of course the base assumption is that everyone has a car.

Yes but even if the halved costs are production costs, without materials, they are essentially investment in robots/machinery and labour. I don't think that much can be saved on robots/machinery, so it must be largely labour,

Yes, but all that can lead to 50% savings? And at the same time reduce factory footprint by 40%? >Officials said the unboxed process could cut production costs in half and reduce the factory footprint by 40%. It sounds optimistic to me.
