[QUOTE="wilberforce15, post: 5487975, member: 5053"] No, you are just making things up. I said that particular innovation was a novelty and has no chance of bringing costs down for anyone. Tesla already pioneered the structural battery pack, where it is integrated to the chassis and plays a role in the structure, and combined with the biggest casting machines ever created by man. And wherever the batteries are, that's where the weight is going to be. Distributing it throughout the car makes no sense, when you can hang it on the bottom. And yes, you should pretty much only look at or care about what Tesla does. That's because Tesla makes 10 to $15,000 on a $50,000 EV. And Ford makes negative 10,000 on a $50,000 EV. Innovation will come in the cost, size, and specs of the batteries. Not where you hang them. [/QUOTE]
