As it turns out, Tesla, and its battery partner Panasonic, started production of cells for qualification at the plant in December, but today, it confirmed the start of “mass production” of the new battery cell, which will enable several of Tesla’s new products, including the Model 3.
The new cell is called ‘2170’ because it’s 21mm by 70mm. It’s thicker and taller than the previous cell that Tesla developed with Panasonic, which was in an ‘18650’ cell format.
Tesla CEO Elon Musk has been boasting about the new cell over the past few month. He said that it’s the “highest energy density cell in the world and also the cheapest”.

Amazing video. Truly amazing
They ment not jiggafactory, but gigafactory, gigantic factory
Really gotta consider where you pause in the sentence. Right before a subject, or comparison is pretty disruptive.
*I was actually just about to spend thousands of dollars for solar batteries, but I searched around to see if there were other options before I did. Luckily I found your course! Because instead, I was able to get old free batteries (like you show how to do), recondition them, and have an entire battery bank for almost no cost [Check Details Here==>**https://plus.google.com/100351090281822647456/posts/6ukDjcr5HXn** ]. Absolutely incredible!*
Lithium batteries are going to be outdated
put it on mini 4wd
G’s n J’s
Tesla, CARS ETC. ALL SOUNDS SO WONDERFUL , NOW TELL THE AMERICAN TAX PAYERS JUST HOW MUCH OF THEIR TAX MONEY IS SUBSIDIZING TELSA, ITS A CRAP LOAD FULL. TO BAD ALL THESE SUSTAINING ENERGY SOURCES THAT ARE SO GOOD CAN’T BE PAID FOR BY THEIR COMPANIES AND NOT EVERY AMERICAN IN THE U.S.A.
GJ u give a lot of job to robot !
very impressive tesla
Ae Nigga factory? fuyou mean boi
Paloalto…
so its just a bigger battery
Your English is terrible. Stopped video halfway….
Persuade store tie heglba rumor big one successfully there row.
PS: It is NOT 2170 it is 21700. 18650 = 18mm x 65mm and the last 0 means round style. So 21700 = 21mm x 70mm and the last 0 again meaning round style. Lastly, they have been on the market for awhile now as most Vapor / e-cig users can attest. 18650 has been the industry standard for a long time. 20700 & 21700 are beginning to gain popularity due to their ability to handle higher Amperage / Storage. Guess they are just new to Tesla at this point.
it is Panasonic battery. End
only i hear russian accent ?
Wouldn’t you agree it’s stupid to start manufacture of few millimeters bigger cell when the 18650 is just becoming to its popularity in flashlights and every kind of products such as powerdrill batteries and so on.
They would have significant price advantage with the 18650 battery cell, which is 10€ a piece in local store 2017.
If tesla would understand about the weight of the battery they would make the cell much bigger. Tho the collision safety with every 2170 fused with those separate hair light fuses must be good >> if << they rip of in crash.
Yoo someone make mods that use these things ASAP
How the fuck can Tesla say there the future when one fucking battery is 10 fucking dollars
What’s the weight difference between the old and new batteries?
What about the 22650?
Why not make a hydrogen battery?
These battery’s are not the future we need a new battery that’s slot more capacity than it is now and one that does not explode so easily I will wait for that to happen for now these cars are all junk
I’m happy that their name is Tesla.
Why isn’t tesla making some decent profit yet with all these great product ?
Tesla needs to make vape batteries
pls
Why don’t they make the batteries square shaped?
it’s not “berrary” lol :)))
B A T T E R Y!!
interresting! Btw. You need to say mhA, “milli amp hours” instead of just mA, or else it isn’t a measure of electrical energy capacity.
can i use it on my clock?
