Ann: New York Lithium-ion Battery Plant Update, page-73

Why would an EV company show any interest in c4v's P series battery? It's an already old form factor for EV's, it seems like an LFP battery (why take a risk with bnmpld), it's not certfied, it's old tech, no one wanted it before. It's just another battery competing with all the other LFP batteries for sale on ebay.
And that update document. What a shocker. Still trying to get the pipes and vacs in place and just a few months till full production? I wonder if they have even unwrapped the old firesale kit they got 4 or so years ago? How did they "achieve" semi-automation (whatever that is) if they had no kit on the floor? DYOR. Smoke and mirrors....
