BMW+Samsung Batteries vs Tesla+Panasonic Batteries -- Which Are Better? | CleanTechnica
It’s a question central to electric vehicle (EV) leadership: Who’s leading on the battery front? We’ll leave GM & LG Chem out of it for the time being, but a recent comment (+ referenced article) here on CleanTechnica brought up the question of BMW+Samsung batteries vs Tesla+Panasonic batteries, and it seemed worth discussing.
Unfortunately, we don’t have enough data to do a complete comparison of the different battery cells and battery packs used in Teslas vs the BMW i3, but I think we have some good guidance.
