Well, supposedly, the 98 kWh battery pack has a price of between $1,100 and $1,400.

That is what we are talking about ... DBM starts to sound like EEStore ...

DBM has given 3 test cars to other companies to test.

Next Energy, however, is primarily interested in the daily use of batteries hummingbird. 40 kilowatt-hours of battery storage, four-seater, spacious trunk, seat heaters, windows and air conditioning - electric, of course.

Ok, atleast they have some concrete plans for producing the batteries. 50MWh would be about 2,000 cars of 100 mile range each. It is also encouraging that they are doing an IPO - that way atleast they have to give a lot more official information than what they have given until now.

I'd like to keep up with this thread. Assuming this becomes a reality in a few years, I would rather pay up to $1,400 for this battery replacement than for a 6.6kW charger upgrade.

No - that figure is not right - just misquoted/translated. Their claim is about $300/kwh.

$300 kWh would be revolutionary, in an automotive grade cell.
