Elon Musk Announces Biggest MAJOR Tesla 4680 Battery Update! 13-min Charging, 5000 Wh/kg Density. The world's largest battery maker has cast doubt on Elon Musk's bold bet. CATL founder and chairman, Robin Zeng, recently dismissed Tesla’s 4680 cylindrical battery technology, claiming it is "doomed to fail." This comes as Tesla continues to push forward with its revolutionary battery format, first unveiled in 2020, which now powers the highly anticipated Cybertruck and select Model Y crossovers.

Touted as a game-changer, the 4680 cell promises higher energy density, lower production costs, and easier assembly compared to older 2170 and 1865 batteries used in Tesla’s popular Model Y, Model 3, and premium S and X lines. Does CATL’s skepticism hold weight? Can Tesla's 4680 battery live up to its ambitious claims, or is Musk's vision facing an imminent collapse? Let’s explore the facts and breakthroughs shaping this heated rivalry.
How Can Tesla Outpace CATL in the Battery Wars?
The rivalry between Tesla and CATL has reached a fever pitch, fueled by contrasting visions for the future of battery technology. During Elon Musk's visit to China in April, Robin Zeng, the chairman of CATL, claimed to have delivered a sobering message to the Tesla CEO. "We had a very big debate," Zeng told Reuters. "I showed him the issues, and he was silent. He doesn’t know how to make batteries—it’s about electrochemistry." Zeng acknowledged Musk’s brilliance in areas like chips, software, and hardware but dismissed his understanding of battery technology, asserting that Tesla's investment in 4680 cylindrical cells is a dead end.

Tesla’s 4680 "tableless" cells, touted as a breakthrough, boast five times the energy capacity of earlier models and are already powering the Cybertruck and select vehicles. Tesla recently announced it has produced its 100 millionth 4680 cell, achieving a daily output of 495,000 cells—enough to supply 368 Cybertrucks. Yet, challenges remain. Musk reportedly gave his team an end-of-year deadline to resolve cost and scalability issues.
