It takes time to scale up production, CATL is supposed to deliver in small scale production next year.
That means the factories for it are already about to be built.

These press releases are weekly. Naxtra will be 30% cheaper, but also bigger and heavier. The problem here is the damn periodic table, someone should change it.
