Electric car batteries are a crucial component in the development of electric vehicles (EVs) and have seen significant advancements in recent years. For example the volumetric energy density of lithium-ion batteries has increased eightfold since 2008, from around 55 watt-hours/litre to 450 watt-hours/litre in 2020.

Now let us look into the one thing that helped Electric vehicles regain popularity and momentum the most. Tesla Motors began production in 2008 with the Roadster, which was essentially an AC Propulsion vehicle with kit-car parts replaced by one-grade-above-kit-car Lotus Elise pieces in the first generation.
