Does anyone have a link to a reputable article, CATL press release or something about the $10/kWh Sodium-ion battery? As far as I can tell its a load of hype based on one automotive news site.

It all seems to go back to here: https://www.autoblog.com/news/china-sodium-ev-battery-shift with a claimed source of Bloomberg NEF but without a link.

Please boost for visibility, this is driving me nuts!

(Not saying it won't get that low, it probably will, but not for a few years.)

Saw this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qwo3i1s_zKU

and was wondering, does China and Chinese companies see third party repair as:
- An ideological good
- Supporting it as competitive advantage?
- Just "what you do"?
- Something they not got around to restricting yet?

I mean, especially in the global South it feels like it coud be a big competitive advantage. Would losing sales in a growing market change John Deer's behaviour?

Anyone have any links or data?
