That is how much of the battery capacity is hidden by the battery management system when the car is new and then slowly doled out as the battery ages to make for the appearance of very slow degradation even though the individual raw cells would be wearing out quite a bit faster? If this were true what you would see is after this excess capacity was exhausted would be battery capacity falling off a cliff eventually, though this data seems to show a couple hundred thousand miles of consistent capacity with no cliff.
SSDs do a similar thing for capacity and wear with a sizable proportion of capacity reserved to replace bad blocks as the SSD ages.
Whenever I make this comment almost everyone responding is just guessing about how I'm wrong and new chemistries are so much better, etc.
It's 3860 x 1854mm, there are vehicles smaller than that being sold in europe right now (in the A segment, not quadricycles): the fiat 500e is 3632x1683, the suzuki ignis is 3700x1660. The citroen c1 (discontinued 2022) used to be just 3470x1620.
Hell there are B segment cars which aren't much bigger, the R5 e-tech is 3920x1770, the yaris is 3940x1745.
> The perovskite betavoltaic cell achieved impressive parameters, including a short-circuit current density of 15.01 nA cm−2, an open-circuit voltage of 2.75 mV, and an energy conversion efficiency of 1.83%, all of which represent significant improvements over previous works.
Does it generate enough revenue to be self sustaining?
