I wasn't talking about the individual cells (although this is probably true, especially once you start looking at batty cell access/capacity), but the battery packs and related electronics.

GM, VAG, and the other traditional manufacturers are still playing catch up, and outside of maybe VAG will probably be playing catch up for a long time.




Yes, it's really in the battery pack, rather than the individual cells, where Tesla has a commanding lead in the technology and the cost.
