Maybe not:

That's why I said "maybe not" instead of "definitely not".But maybe so. The Forbes article says three large companies are still building lithium extraction plants at the Salton Sea. Just because one company's technology isn't suited for that particular brine doesn't mean you can't use other technologies to extract it.
Should be fine here especially since you’re not adding an op ed or using it to beat a dead horse.I guess this should go in some political thread, but it's not Twitter at least. To be fair, not many people get an audience with both congressional leaders.

Ideally one should put down as little as possible on a lease so really that should read $539/mo with First and TTL due at signing.Model 3 SR+ base now can be leased for 399/month after 4500 down.
They're better than they were before Toyoda stepped down....That’s not too different from my take.
I don’t see their chances are good.
This is a nice move. Remember Tesla keeps the $7500 tax credit on every vehicle they lease in the US since Jan 1 including S3X and Y. There is no price limits and no battery mineral requirements so this will not potentially reduce in March as the credit that comes when purchasing a car. Also no income limits on the leases.Model 3 SR+ base now can be leased for 399/month after 4500 down.
Assuming 4-5 miles pr KWh (pretty efficient) and 30% efficient cells (also pretty efficient), using the typical 5 hrs worth of full generation per day, that's 2kW of solar. That means a bit more than 6m^2 of cell surface area. That's a lot for a car... or there's some other factor I'm unaware of...I never heard of Lightyear 0... how many EV startups are there? Impressive cost reduction plans!
"The Lightyear 0 was priced at about $300,000 and meant to be produced in limited quantities. The Lightyear 2, however, is far cheaper, at about $40,000, allowing for mass production. The company says it will offer up to 500 miles of driving ranges and come with solar cells, which should net up to 44 miles on sunny days. However, it has yet to release full images of the model."
Lightyear suspends the Lightyear 0 to focus on its cheaper model
Lightyear has announced major changes to its roadmap. The solar EV startup has suspended plans for its first model, the Lightyear 0, after shipping the first batch of units. It will now focus on Lightyear 2. […]driveteslacanada.ca
IDK, 250K buys a lot of electricity and spare cars when you compare to a Model 3.Assuming 4-5 miles pr KWh (pretty efficient) and 30% efficient cells (also pretty efficient), using the typical 5 hrs worth of full generation per day, that's 2kW of solar That means a bit more than 6m^2 of cell surface area.

So this graphic that was tweeted seems to depict 9 modules in a 3x3 grid:A close up of the Tesla Semi battery pack. Doesn’t seem like 4680s and structural packs are really a big piece of the Tesla Semi game plan. I’m sure if they need cells they can plug them in, but this seems like a pretty obvious candidate for soaking up their supply of 2170 cells for a long time to come.
Heck, looking at it, it’s likely extremely adaptable to lots of different cell types. It’s just bunch of boxes of cells. Also looks almost like you could unbolt them and replace them eventually.
Looks almost as bulky as the Hummer battery pack. With roughly 4x the capacity.

But money can't change physics... unless they have 80% efficient solar cells (which I don't believe exist), how do you have that much surface area available for cells?IDK, 250K buys a lot of electricity and spare cars when you compare to a Model 3.
Ah so it’s vaporware too?But money can't change physics... unless they have 80% efficient solar cells (which I don't believe exist), how do you have that much surface area available for cells?

The picture from the post above has at least 2 rows visible, but given the apparently wider "center" modules and lack if any indication of a 3rd row, are we seeing a 2x4 arrangement?
