Re: In other words...
The lag between a laboratory demonstration of revolutionary "super batteries" and the first one to roll out of a factory is at least 10 years and that's only if the revolutionary "super battery" can be scaled up for production and has the hoped for longevity, reduced dendrite production or whatever.
They could be working on it for 3 or 4 years after the lab demo just to see if it's worth continuing.
In reality the biggest driver (pun intended) of EVs is massive advances in the efficiency of motors most noticeably because of the absurdly powerful neodymium permanent magnets.
