No, "we" don't "have a real contender to Tesla".

We have a contender to companies building about 40,000 units in 2024/24..... That'll be Porsche, Mercedes. If Lucid took half that number from Tesla even next year, it would only be 1% (Or less) of their total production. Tesla will be out of sight for some time.

Hands down. One of the best presentation on electric car power system period.!

[@philoso377]

Thanks for airing this video. As I have something to add here. Electrical issue: 18650 and 21700 share a like architecture in thermally and electrically. Both has a welded tab at the anode-tab junction and not the tab-case junction which opens up a fire hazard issue, should tab-case junction are bumped open circuited by extreme inertial shock, subsequently the release of an internal spark next to heated chemicals. The Panasonic solution? apply a preload on the tap-case junction by an elastomer, it helps passing preload stress from - anode-elastomer-tab-casing. On the other hand 46800 has replaced 1) welded tab and 2) preloaded elastomer by 3) annealed copper flaps and 4) preloaded bristle contacts. Pay attention to the flaps. The annealed anode flaps cannot hold its initial shape and will be deformed under constant inertial shocks, shocks coupled via the bristle contacts, one by one disconnected from the adjacent contact until the last contact left. The next inertial shock will finally bump the cell open circuited, to induce a spark next to heated chemicals. Thermal issue: 18650 and 21700 cells had to dissipate heat laterally because cylinder wall has a lower thermal resistance compare to cylinder base. Yet Lucid chose to pass heat through cylinder base. Lucid chose out of a common misunderstanding share by Tesla. Misunderstanding? True: (A) The thermal resistance in axial direction through metal is less than in an radial direction through laminations chemicals and insulation. False: (B) it is wise to chose cylinder base to pass heat in/out of the cell. Why false? (C) There is a air gap in between (anode roll) and (cylinder base). This gap is practically a thermal insulator. That affect Lucid’s pack architecture. (D) the air gap is bridged by a wafer of bristle contacts for 46800 cells, as stated in (C) above, annealed flaps and open circuit issues. Granted open circuit is non issue but the bristle contact is as good as air gap in thermal conduction. Can lead to overheated chemical and possible fire and explosion. Remedy for 46800 tab less architecture? Employ induction heated soldering to bridge the anode-case junction. Result : open circuit proof with excellent heat transfer axially. Remedy for 18650 and 22700? Slightly extend anode copper beyond the insulation, employ induction heated soldering to bridge the anode-case junction. Result : open circuit proof with excellent heat transfer, actually.

@@martyndavies1482 yes. I’m a structural engineer who just happens to be interested in electric vehicles sending it to my fellow structural engineers. They are not electrical and mechanical engineers. It’s just for educational purposes.

Ordered my car a few weeks ago and, I am a proud shareholder.

[@showcivicred]

im envious you are getting to own one! I dont make that kind of money....yet. I do own some of the stock and am really looking forward to watching the company grow and what they do to implement their tech into lower priced vehicles.

[@sebastianmoradi4311]

@@showcivicred Same here. Exciting times ahead.

Beautiful insights!

[@trepan4944]

I thought I knew a thing of two about EVs. Maybe a tad more than even a smart engineer. Peter proved to me I have more to learn. Great video!!!

[@kennethmosburg9908]

The ABSOLUTE MOST EDUCATIONAL video on battery, electronic vehicles I could have imagined possible! ULTRA SUPERLATIVE EDUCATION! THANK YOU VERY MUCH!

Somebody should tell Warren Redlich to watch this when he is not busy making videos claiming that Lucid is a fraud since he doesn't get the math.

Redlich is too busy screaming hate toward NIO and Battery Swapping. That NIO's swap stations are a game-changer and brilliantly designed and a massive success in China with hundreds of swap stations is considered heresy. By the congregation of the Church of Lord Elon. Because TESLA failed at it they must condemn it as an attack on their lord. Plus the interior of a NIO is German quality in a way a MODEL S PLAID for double the price is not.
