Video Summary
Here is the summary of the video review:The upcoming rear-wheel drive Tesla Cybertruck with a 250-mile range is likely to be equipped with lithium iron phosphate batteries.
Iron-based batteries generally last longer, are safer, and can be regularly charged to 100%.
A 250-mile range seems fitting for lithium iron phosphate chemistry in the Cybertruck.
The Tesla Cybertruck has a structural battery pack designed around 4680 cyber cells, with a capacity of about 123 kilowatt hours.
With smaller battery pack, using nickel-manganese-cobalt cyber cells, the truck would have to include less cells, fill the void with dummy cells, or build in some other structure into the battery pack.
Tesla already uses lithium iron phosphate batteries in its standard-range vehicles.
Lithium Iron Phosphate batteries have less degradation and longer life than nickel-based batteries.
BYD Blade batteries are a form of prismatic batteries.
Lithium iron phosphate batteries do pretty well for range loss in the winter.
The Tesla Y with LFP batteries averages a 2% range loss after around 45,000 miles.
If the 250-mile range Cybertruck has all-season tires, it would have a daily range of 250 miles.
The charging performance with LFP batteries in Tesla vehicles is quite good.
