Well you did say:



Which is not compatible with it being 63% cheaper like I just showed with proof, so you are fundamentally more wrong.
Did you read the OP's link, or just skim it. It's not a $120K plaid, nor a 100Kw battery. It's a 2013 Tesla model S, and a current replacement battery replacement is $26,000

your link also supplied a 2013 Tesla model S with a 60KW pack that cost $35,000.

You quoted in another article that in 2012 batteries cost $40,000 new.

You showed charts and stated facts that batteries have come down 90%.

Using your facts (figures), those batteries should be $3000 - $6000 today depending on size. A 2012 $40,000 60Kw battery should be $4000 today not $26,000 today.

The AUDI and Chevy EV batteries cost is well over $30K or more today too, as are others. These should be $3000-6000 using your $/KW and 90% formulas.

Kind of hard to debate your facts if the math isn't correct. Either your math is wrong, your facts or wrong, or how you use them is. I'll let you decide.
