ELON MUSK UNVEILED 3 NEW TECH BATTERIES FOR 2025! WILL HIT THE MARKET SOON AND BREAK ALL EVS INDUSTRY!

EV Channels Review

This video delves into Tesla's advancements with its 4680 battery technology, focusing on the upcoming Gen 3 iteration. The primary innovation highlighted is the adoption of a dry electrode coating process for both anode and cathode, a significant departure from traditional wet coating methods. This new process promises substantial cost reductions (up to 50% claimed), improved energy density (targeting 300 Wh/kg), and a smaller manufacturing footprint. The review notes that while early 4680 cells in the Model Y were inefficient, and the current Gen 2 'Cybercell' for the Cybertruck is an improvement, the Gen 3 aims to be a true game-changer. Challenges in scaling the dry cathode process, particularly equipment breakdowns, are discussed, but recent reports suggest these have been overcome. The potential impact on vehicle pricing, with savings of up to $3,000 per vehicle, is also explored. The video concludes that Tesla's internal battery development, exemplified by the 4680, provides a competitive edge over relying on external suppliers.
