According to UBS analyst Colin Langan (Colin Langan), disassembling lithium-ion batteries from Panasonic / Tesla, LG Chem, Samsung SDI and Contemporary Amperex Technology (CATL) showed that Panasonic / Tesla batteries are about 20% cheaper than the following best deal from LG Chem.

By approximate calculations, lithium-ion finger-type batteries from Panasonic, format 21700 (2170), cost 111 US dollars per 1 kW * h. This is $ 37 cheaper than the LG Chem offer ($ 148 per kWh). And if prices for other battery manufacturers are even higher, the Panasonic / Tesla manufacturing company is in an even better position compared to them. On the other hand, there is no certainty how much cheaper it is to make modules from other types of batteries (the total difference on a module may be less).

In any case, a 75 kWh battery should cost Tesla 8325 US dollars or 11100 per 100 kWh. As far as we understand, this is the cost before they start making modules. For comparison, LG Chem such batteries will cost more, respectively 2800 and 3700 US dollars.

UBS expects that by the year 2025, the aforementioned manufacturers will control 70% of the market for rechargeable batteries for electric vehicles, and prices will decrease by 10% within 2-3 years.
