If European and NA car companies have to survive and compete with BYD, then solid state battery is essential differentiator. Congratulations quantumscape for speeding up the industrialization of the technology developed. If successful, this will be a battery that will replace legacy 40 years old lithium ion battery. Not just that, but it essentially would nullify any existing silicon anode battery startups including Tesla's 4680 efforts.

Exciting news, Siva! The optimal approach involved harnessing the core strengths of both companies. Best wishes to your team!
