GM is definitely living the 'batteries are EASY' consequence.

Lithium keeps dropping in price, which will help overall.

We are still in the awkward, teenage years. Not that many charging stations, not all cars are using the same connector, and some of the software totally sucks (I'm looking at you, GM).

Some are having trouble making safe batteries (LG for GM and the older Bolt).

Kia seems to be doing ok tho.

yep, and much better battery tech (solid state) will be available around the 2030 timeline.
