If Goodenough & Braga battery get mass production in 3 or 4 years, maybe electric cars get even cheaper than internal combustion engine cars.
After all, it will just require a electric motor (maybe on wheels), a battery. No tranmission, no carburator, distributer, or much oils system.

I hope they change the basic car design of ICB cars, instead of just keep it and add electric motors and battery. There is a whole range of possibilities to change design of cars when we thing in the electric energy field.

The reasoning was that,a BEV motor,electronics,and pack would have the same cost as an engine,transmission,and powertrain,by that time.
This is without any magic.
