    I feel like LFP batteries are/will continue to improve as well. So we might see sodium at the low end of the market like the mini-evs and micro-cars but I think LFP will be the main material used in the mass market EVs we will see in the west.

      Agreed, I actually think LFP might become the dominant chemistry in most EVs, not just mid market cars. The energy density and charging speed improvements for LFP batteries coming to market in the next 2-3 years look very promising, especially combined with the perceived increased safety and life span of LFP. I’ll be interesting to see if ‘AB’ mixed chemistry packs become common, i.e a mix of Sodium-Ion and Ternary or LFP cells in the one pack 🤔
