Certainly not. Batteries will be introduced into a few models and slowly gain market share while production is scaled up over a few years. If they’re really that much better, they’ll be in luxury cars first and part of the price tag, slowly working their way down the model palette. If a company patented a crucial technology for manufacturing, they’ll have a monopoly but won’t be able to scale quickly, slowing down adoption further. These things don’t just happen overnight, so current battery types will remain relevant for years, guaranteed.
