Tesla will hold “Battery Day” within a few weeks. Expect major developments, starting with Tesla having bought a battery company which reduced production steps and can store significantly more power per volume. Recycling batteries is obvious, when talking ~1 ton of lithium-imbued batteries. Recycling is somewhat moot insofar as Tesla is achieving million-mile longevity (>90% original capacity at that usage); when the equivalent ICE vehicle is built for ~1/10th that distance (contrasting 1 EV battery vs 10 entire vehicles).

I have an electric bridge in Brooklyn for sale that does even better than that. I can give you a deal!
