Tesla 4680 battery in big trouble, Nobel laureate cries foul

In an interview, Ji Yajuan, director of the basic materials and technology research department of EVERLIGHT, said that the layout of EVERLIGHT is 46800 and 46950 two large cylindrical batteries. The company will gradually market the large cylindrical battery after 2023, and the annual production capacity is expected to reach 20GWh in 2023 and 40GWh in 2024.

The 4680 battery exhibit is also on display at the Shanghai Auto Show. But the car stuff did not find more information about Lixin 4680 battery, but only the photos taken by other media at the scene.

Anyway, there are already three Chinese companies with finished 4680 batteries at the show. And there will probably be more companies joining in the future.

Conclusion: New technologies are easy to release and hard to mass produce

Looking back at Tesla's battery day in 2020, it was a great deal of attention. Musk came up with 4680 cells and received all kinds of applause with the new technology that no other player had. And the eye-catching numbers on the PPT reminded the audience that this new battery is very impressive and has revolutionary significance.

But in the blink of an eye 2 years have passed, the models equipped with 4680 battery did not surprise people in terms of performance, people seem to gradually forget the existence of this battery, while Tesla is quietly solving the mass production problems, it is inevitable that people are sad.

Seeing the current situation, in fact, it is obvious to think of a conclusion, that is, any new technology is easy to release mass production is difficult.
