Analysts: 40% drop in 2023-2025 EV battery prices will boost sales (www.greencarreports.com)

Analysts expect nearly a 40% decline in EV battery prices between 2023 and 2025, and for EVs to "reach breakthrough levels in terms of cost parity" with internal-combustion vehicles in some markets as early as next year—without subsidies. That's due to lower materials cost and the effect of a current stagnation in EV sales allowing supply to catch up with demand, according to the analysis.

Battery prices will continue to fall significantly through 2025 and more or less level off after that, analysts predict. And that could allow EVs to reach larger market shares more quickly. Goldman analysts now predict that EVs could reach 50% market share in the U.S. by 2030, and 68% in the European Union by that year.

At least in europe, there are some strong trends towards cheaper EVs in general. One example is the Volkswagen id.3, that is now available for under € 30.000.

But the range argument is also true: Almost any car comes with a 50 kwh battery these days (in europe at least).
