there are couple presentations from a year ago that explains how their chemistry works. all they are doing now is going from single cell to multi cell, test production and mass production by 2024.
Sounds like Quantumscape is making progress however, what about the cost? Will Quantumscapes solid state battery be cost competitive with Tesla's 4680? If not, it will only be used in very high end models that most people cannot afford. Please comment how cost competitive this battery will be. Hope it works out.
As with any innovation it will be expensive at first obviously. Just because its theoretically cheaper does not mean it will be relatively cheaper at first. Scaling large factories etc. should bring cost down over time. It will be in premium cars first of course given low production and high cost and then later trickle down to other models. Very similar to any other tech in cars so im not too worried about that + entire world is pushing adoption. My prediction at least - my worry is getting the tech into a car in the first place and getting production up and running :-)
Not only tech and cost: all depends on good relationship. The bet is just gain a great deal with a full-scale global car manufacturer: solid state is basically reliable and safer.
it will be more expensive but should end up being cheaper once they scale up. they dont require the same amount of expensive materials and bc of the higher energy density you can utilize a smaller battery pack size. they will be making packs for vw so that should help them get the volumes they need.
Watching in may 2024 with the test results and prototypes being built if they can scale successively it will be massive. I really think investing is a no brainer
I just started investing into this fascinating and new breakthrough opportunity. I wouldn't want to be looking back 10 yrs. from now wishing I didn't take the time to invest into its research and potential. This battery will not suddenly explode in flames like a liquid Core ion lithium battery, and getting safety of the battery in the solid state variety surely made me a believer on top of all the other benefits of its functionality.
Yikes ! Good luck :) We will have a oxygen battery by the time this company comes out with a battery . They are always 6 mos to year away for 10 years now ! Total con job
What do you do about the price of lithium now which costs over $100,000. It renders the entire process cost prohibitive. However, nothing else can replace it.
@@Parture Exactly, it wasn't a huge problem, just a temporary crazyness. And Sodion-Ion is looking more and more like a real alternative to Lithium-Ion that can take at least some pressure of the demand for Lithium. No reason to use Lithium or NMC in stationary energy storage, Sodium-Ion and LiFePO4 is amazing for this.
I'm predicting at least 3 new battery "types" coming to market each year for the next 10 years. Battery developers are all on notice they don't have "years" anymore, they have months to get to market. Not all of those will be for cars but 3 per year in production is my prediction. The good news is some will use different materials and chemistry than the ones we use now. This will help distribute demand for materials to more sources and help keep down costs. Also, each new one won't replace existing types in all cases, in fact most will be "in addition to" what me make now. There is enough demand and use cases to support all types of battery production. Remember, not all of these will be for cars, some will be for other use cases like energy storage.
1) Yes. 2) No. That needs more time to get mass produced. also the new tech is owned by Volkswagon and Bill Gates. They might just decide to make it exclusive to their cars.
He relies on the questioner's memory to be poor enough that he can talk long enough for the questioner to forget the question and not realize it's not being answered.
anyone have any ideal how is quantumscape now? they do not have any video or anything tell people how far they get it work

Great video. Slowly cost averaging my investment over time. Here’s hoping 🤞 Good luck and keep the updates coming
Isnt anode the +ve and cathode the -ve electrode ?

Is Michalea still with the company?
I really like this CEO. he seems like a great guy and leader. I bought a lot of stock in QS for the long term.
I want 4 speed manual ev's and 3 speed automatics and 2 speed automatics
I bet the farm on this technology.

Your comment has not aged well 😂
@@geraldh.8047 I think it has aged well. We are at $10,000 U.S. for lithium carbonate.

Jagdeep is legit. I have been watching QS ever since it went public. I have enough confidence now, to take punt.

You should cast your own material, it would save money.
Um,
1, does it work?
2, can I buy one?
It's crazy to me this video has so few views...
1) Yes.
2) No. That needs more time to get mass produced.

@@vorpalinferno9711 I'm sorry, if i buy stock then i would think I'm an owner too.
Looks like Ben Landen
Bruh 🤣🤣
If you don't cheap out youll get a good battery
Only one way to find out invest
The CEO must have gone to school in America. He has a California accent.
He's American citizen
He graduated from Univ of MD; outside Wash DC.
Lots of paid comments here.
