      Right, for a model Y Long Range, 340 miles / 75 KWh is 4.5 miles per KWh, so a 100KWh battery would get 450 miles (assuming the weight is the same, but it isn’t since a model Y LR pack weight is 771Kg, and theoretically this battery would be closer to 300Kg since it has a much better gravimetric energy density (which is the REAL STORY HERE). ** these Tesla numbers are likely off by a bit, just did google research … 😅

Drastically increasing the range or charging speed are the ONLY way to overcome the lack of charging infrastructure that will never be sufficient for these people.

    I have 90,000 mile on my Sept 30, 2021 Model Y Long Range. I currently drive 40,000 miles per year. I expect to get at least 400,000 miles on this battery or 10 years. At the time the battery replacement technology should be pretty well developed and Tesla will have a good income stream replacing batteries. The cost should be about $5000 and the current range of 300 miles should be extended to 500 miles with a software update to optimize the car for the replacement battery. The new battery will get 1 million plus miles.
    10 year. financing on new cars is coming to match the payment period with the economy value of the car.

      That's similar to my experience too. My EV is 5 years old, only 97,000 km but zero range loss, none at all...thanks to the 3.5 kWh battery buffer in the Kia e-Niro. At some point the buffer will be used up and I will see a real world range loss..but I don't expect that to happen until the 150,000 - 200,000 km mark...by which time the car will be 10 years old. At 15 years?...who knows but even if the battery is down to 50% of its original range it will still have 225 km to play with and may be perfect as a cheap commute car/school run/second car. With none of that nasty vibrating lump of metal and oily bits in the front I suspect EVs will outlive ICE and stay useful for many years...This will become clear as the years roll by and it will change the whole economics of car ownership and financing.

    To get 1000 miles on a model 3 you need 250KWh pack (4 miles per kwh). At 350Wh/kg for the pack it's going to be a 715KG battery. That's 260KG heavier than the current Model 3 Battery at 454KG. For a 454KG battery using the 24M cells you'd be able to get a 158KWh pack, which would yield a range of approximately 635 miles per charge. This doesn't tell the entire story though as you'd have to look at the volumetric density as well. After 500 cycles that would likely reduce to 527 miles. The 500 cycle running distance would be 317K miles, not 500K miles. Charge curve and charge times are also important to consider with such a large battery and are traditionally not great for solid state cells.

    Hi, Sam. I'm a retired Aerodynamicist (actually specialised in Flight Dynamics, but know the processes used for Performance Prediction), and am not optimistic about battery powered flight except for very short range. A useful quick estimate of range can be made from the lift/drag ratio and the weight (which doesn't change for battery powered flight). So if L/D is about 20 (typical for a commercial airliner), each kg produces about half a Newton of drag. Each km consumes 500 Joules per kg (assuming 100% efficit conversion from electric power to thrust). A kw.hour will therefore give a kg a range of 7,200km. If the airframe and payload were weightless, a battery with 380 W.hours/kg could propel itself 0.38×7200 = 2,736 km. Unfortunately converting from power to thrust involves pushing air backwards - you haven't got firm ground to push backwards. It's hard to get as much as 80% of power turned into thrust, and you're likely to lose another 5% to the electric motor being less than 100% efficient. So the range is down to 2,052 km.The there is the reserve you need for diversion if the airfield you plan to land at is closed (for example during a recent storm, one aircraft that failed to land at Edinburgh had to divert to Cologne, another to Paris). I'm not sure what the legal minimum reserve range is, but both of those aircraft were forced to fly an extra 800 km. I'm guessing a reserve of 500 km. That brings the range of the battery by itself down to 1500 km. Adding an airframe and powerplant weight roughly equivalent to the battery brings the range down to 1,026 km without reserve, and about 500km with reserve. That's barely enough to do an internal flight in the UK, certainly not medium or long range. To cross the Atlantic, you need over 5,000km range, so looking for an energy density about 5 times higher than this solid state battery. 2 kW.hours/kgm might just about do it. But thanks for the news, Sam, I really appreciate it.

      Thanks for this analysis. I concluded the same a while back - electric flight is possibly feasible for air taxi services but long haul flight? Not a chance! As you said, even with 5x current energy density, which works out at around 1600Wh/kg, it’s still insufficient for a cross-Atlantic route. No battery technology has anywhere near that energy density, even theoretically. It’s a total non-starter.

      But before you start experimenting, do a little bit of reading up on Tesla (Nikola!) and his "experiments". You might want to have a bit more of an in depth look at the "rectenna", too. Good luck with your experiments.

Could you collect that much from microwaves in the planform of an aircraft body and wing? The microwave receiving equipment would have to be buried inside the skin of the aircraft, and you might need some reflective metal foil in the fuselage skin to protect passengers from being cooked. Also, you would have to track very precisely each aircraft you were powering, and there might be an issue with any microwave energy that missed the aircraft striking plants or animals, or people, on the ground.

This implies there are applications where drivers want that amount to be available, even if they have to replace the original tank. The given example with the passat is not an exception - VW, Audi, BMW had different motors for the same car where the big blocks were quite thirsty so that they installed a big tank by default. Combine that with a super efficient motor from the same manufacturer and you get those 1000 mile range right from the production line.

It is reasonably safe to drive 400 miles with two drivers each doing half. But it's the single driver who thinks he is safe to do 500 miles in one stint that should worry the other drivers!

      one of the biggest reasons why a 400-500 mile range EV is highly desirable is charging speed at home. another is climate, and another is actual range vs EPA ratings. then there are the road trippers, where 270 mile range is nerve wracking, and many public chargers along the highways cost the same as gas.
      I live in vegas. we see 110F over the summer, and often hover at 103-108F for 3 months. we all know how cold reduces range, but never talk about how high heat does it worse.
      I own a model 3, SR RWD 270 miles of range, and a heavy user. i live in an apartment but CAN charge in my garage but only on level 1, which is about 5 miles of range per hour plugged in, and im a mildly heavier user and a lot of idle time too.
      right now in average weather, it suffices, but when i add in extra miles to my car, charging becomes an issue based on charging speed. its even worse when its over 100F outside, my range tanks a good 15%, and over 108F outside, its tankes close to 40-50% of my range which means where my generally sufficient level 1 charger does just fine for me 95% of the time, i now have to use a SC every other day and its like throwing money away because a SC at such a frequency ends up costing me as much as a gas car would.

    Lucid air touring gets 520 miles of range from 112 kwh battery. It has the highest miles per kWh of any car at 5. So any car with that efficiency per mile would require a minimum of 200 kWh to get 1000 miles of range. The weight of the pack is key. A 200 kWh pack at this density would be the same weight as a 100 kWh Tesla model S pack. There is no magic way to make the car go farther with less kWh. However one other factor should be considered...the rate of discharge. Because the rate of discharge is slower the battery will be more efficient, perhaps 10-15% more efficient. This depends as well on the battery chemistry.

    Nobody mentions the price. If the battery costs $800/kwh, then a 100kwh battery will cost $80,000 each. Then, you have still got to add in the cost of the car. Wake me up if someone says they can produce a lightweight battery for less than $100/kwh.

    I don't need 1000 miles of range but it'd be nice to have 350 to 400 miles of towing. We won't need diesel trucks at that point. Current tech is perfect for passenger vehicles, but we need to step up our game for towing, freight, and flying.

    It will need 1K miles capacity for when it gets cold or carrying any significant load so it still has decent range when it gets cut in half under those conditions.

    A 1,000 mile range can make sense. If I go to the gas station 3 times to make a 1,000 mile trip, I'm almost on the same schedule with one 30 minute charging stop.

    80% charge capacity of 1000 miles is still 800 miles which is still massive range.

    The density might be very welcome in the Cyber Semi. Volume and weight have been impediments to obtaining the really needed 500-miles (800-km) range.

    I would love to retrofit my hybrid VW GTE replaceble battery pack with these M24 batteries when the time comes. It would extend the range of my electric driving radius... Tinkerers will start making these when they become available on the market at large.

    Hi Sam,
    Just so you know. Energy is measured in wh not in w.
    w is a measure of power. You have to say 350 wh per liter or kg …
    I really like you episodes.

    The new battery is a game-changer that will solve a lot of battery problems. My electric vehicle battery has noticeably degraded in just two years of moderate usage. It is most noticeable when going up hills. I envision a day when I can get a new battery for my electric bike based on this game-changing technology.

      *EV channel, mate. We measure everything just the way we want, here. A decimal point here, a zero there... don't you worry about it. We've got it all under control.
      After you've been here for a while, you'll start to enjoy the freedom that you get from not having to conform to physics, maths and history. It's wonderful. Truly liberating.

    If you put a high density battery in a hybrid and double its electric-only range, while the cost of the battery remains the same, I think it could be a winner. Imagine a Prius with 200km of all electric range (supplied by a 40Kwh battery), 200hp of power and an owner who plugs it in once every 4 days at their home charger. The price of such a vehicle could be $40k and I think there would be many takers over a Model 3, especially in USA where the charging network is not as well-developed and people tend to drive longer distances. The other advantage is that after 6 years or so, the battery could be replaced at a more modest cost, (it is approximately the size of a small microwave), possibly with an improved one.

    It will be wiser to use a lot smaller battery pack, and to reducde the overal vwhicle total weight. Reduce the battery, reduces the car weight, reduces the brake size, reduces the spring rate, etc. The vehicle needs to be designed with the new battery technology to fully take its full potential.

    Oh man, the Aptera with 24M batteries (semi solid electrodes), 2000 miles of range, absolutely amazing: only one recharge needed during a coast-to-coast USA trip. Such a combi can fast charge an incredible number of miles per minute, comparable with refueling gasoline.

    If it takes 12 hours to 10% to 80% charge a battery pack with 1900 km range, one might need the larger capacity battery pack just to have enough tie to charge it between use. Also assume these packs won't be more expensive than rhodium by weight and don't lose range significantly over 2000 charge cycles.
