" CATL has thrown its hat into the ring with the Naxtra sodium-ion battery, with 175 Wh/kg and 10,000 lifetime cycles along with operation from -40°C to 70°C. CATL is planning a start-stop battery for trucks using the technology. It has the potential to replace lead-acid batteries. CATL has announced battery pricing at the cell level in volume at $19/kWh.

Would this be a good replacement for 12v lead acid car batteries as well?

Depends on how fast the technology can dump current. Lead acid is particularly good about dumping a ton of current to crank.
