I really want to see an independent test of an actual car using those batteries before I make any judgement. But if this lives up to the hype even somewhat, it'll certainly be a big step. And as for those subsidies, every heard about the "Inflation Reduction Act"? It's a huge subsidy with a lot of protectionism mixed in. Whining about Chinese subsidies is just hypocritical.

Will their ads read, “Our cars are almost as good as those with the CATL Shenxing PLUS battery, except they have a shorter range and take three times as long to charge?”

This is the type of journalism you get when you allow companies to pay for positive coverage.
