The problem is that this is a Chinese automaker and things aren’t looking good between the Western world and China right now…

The batteries for the cars in this article are made by Farasis Energy, which is an American company. Northvolt also has their sodium program, and Natron Energy is already making stationary backup batteries. China will not have a monopoly on this tech.
