I would think sodium ion would particularly make sense in an EV, or a hybrid.

Even if they aren't as energy dense, per weight and volume... the longevity, the rechargability, the cold weather effectiveness.

That addresses... so many of the problems that EVs as depreciating assets face, and it makes EVs make sense in areas that are currently too cold too often for them to make sense.

A sensible world could make this work so well with a decent charging network.
