Battery pack manufacturing cost

The average cost to make a lithium-ion battery ranges from $100 to $200 per kilowatt-hour. Key factors that affect the price include the size of the battery, its chemistry, and the manufacturing process. Inside each EV battery pack are multiple interconnected modules made up of tens to hundreds of rechargeable Li-ion cells. Collectively, these cells make up roughly 77% of the total cost of an average battery pack, or about $101/kWh. So, what drives the cost of these individual battery cells? The Cost of a Battery Cell
