Tesla Battery Day summary :Battery Costs should Drop by Half Within 3 Years

 Musk announced a series of advances, and these are realistic goals and incremental improvements in the individual components and processes, that will yield to :

--> a 54 percent increase in range

--> a 56 percent decrease in the dollar per kilowatt-hour pack price

--> a 69 percent decrease in capital investment required for manufacturing.

 
All these can surely enable Tesla to make a $25,000 electric vehicle in three years.
 
The first change is done right now with a much thicker cell form factor, the 4680. The new tab less design simplifies manufacturing, improves the power-to-weight ratio, and virtually eliminates heat when supercharging: very big charging speed will be seen then. 
This new battery will adds 16 percent range versus Tesla's current battery cells and reduces the cost per kilowatt-hour by 14 percent, and its currently being built in USA.

Besides, they are working on a silicon anode to increase range by 20 percent and lozer costs by 5 percent, and also on a high-nickel cathode that eliminates cobalt, leading to a 15 percent reduction in cost.
 
Great future is at hands!!
