Interesting that while current Kokam batteries for FES cost 8000 euros (2000eur/kWh), at the same time Tesla is building batteries costing under 200 eur/kWh. Assembling FES battery with new Tesla cells would cost one tenth, even doubling or tripling that would still keep it quite affordable. Why use so expensive battery?


I think this is where Bob K or Darryl R inserts pictures of Flaming Tesslas...


Pretty sure the percentage of Teslas going up in flames is no higher than for petrol powered cars, and only after crashes not before. We're not talking Note 7's here.
