LFP is not new. It's been in cars since Fisker integrated A123's batteries. CATL and other manufacturers have been churning out LFP in volume for over a decade now.

You do realize a decade is a very short time for something at a scale this large with complex interactions that needs to be reliable, efficient and reproducible at scale. Plus long term tests take time because it is a factor to many clients to see if they can handle at least a decade.

Yes I do and LFP has been manufactured and integrated at scale for a very long time.
