By the way... Are we really not going to see anything about the live Q&A Stark did last week about the battery? There's no information about it at all? That's infuriating... i can't find anything

BTW, if you want some real news about solid state batteries, BYD plans its first batches for next year (limited production runs, pilot scale).
They did not give any energy density value.
Why is this vastly more significant than Donut scam I hear you say? Because BYD is the world leading electric car manufacturer, the second largest battery manufacturer, and they have an army of engineers and PhDs working full-time on SSB. Their research and development department alone employs about 100 000 people, thousands of which are dedicated to SSB.
So when BYD says first run 2027 and mass production 2030 it's a bit more serious than when a company of 50 people claims a breakthrough.
Industrialization will always start with the big players, for high-end cars, then it will trickle down to more common cars and eventually motorcycles.
