Discharge rate is similar to recharge rate. Plaid's batteries are designed for fast discharge and recharge, but many companies are working on faster recharging.

Powertrain tech like that Merc is where I think more of the range will come from for a while. I am just not convinced on the increase in battery tech will get us the gains we have seen in the last 10 years on a mass scale. That startup battery was a an iron phosphate, would like to see it's performance in cold weather but that is the most promising one I gotten to read about.

Edit: Duh I know prismatic cells. I don't know why I spaced on those. I think the prototype I had from that company that tanked I was working with was a prismatic LFP.
