Electric vehicle economics: How lithium-ion cell costs impact EV prices Lithium prices have fallen significantly, putting the cost of cells at 7.5% of the price of an EV as of August 2024 (Tesla Model 3 Base, USA), down from 15% in January 2023. Find out how falling raw materials prices are impacting auto OEMs and reshaping global EV pricing strategies
For instance, Zacua, one of the EV makers in Mexico, offers two models, MX2 and MX3, at around 600,000 pesos ($32,000). Additional problem: according to the Mexican Automotive Industry Association (AMIA), there are only 1,100 charging stations nationwide.
The cost of lithium-ion batteries per kWh decreased by 14 percent between 2022 and 2023. Lithium-ion battery price was about 139 U.S. dollars per kWh in 2023.
Sonora hosts virtually all Mexico''s lithium resources—8.82Mt lithium carbonate equivalent (LCE) or 1.66Mt lithium metal. What we are doing now. The BMW Group is investing €800 million in Plant San Luis Potosí in Mexico for integration of fully-electric models of NEUE KLASSE and construction of local high-voltage battery assembly.
Our researchers forecast that average battery prices could fall towards $80/kWh by 2026, amounting to a drop of almost 50% from 2023, a level at which battery electric vehicles would achieve ownership cost parity with
According to Bloomberg New Energy Finance''s (BNEF) annual battery price survey, lithium-ion battery pack prices averaged $132 per kilowatt hour in 2021—down from $140 per kilowatt hour in 2020. Inside each electric vehicle battery pack are multiple interconnected modules made up of tens to hundreds of rechargeable Lithium-ion cells.
In Mexico, car manufacturing plants could more easily comply with this

The BMW i3 was one of the first electric vehicles for sale in Mexico, and although it has been on the market for several years now, its unique design and avant-garde selection of materials keep it as a very interesting
In Mexico, car manufacturing plants could more easily comply with this requirement if they utilized batteries produced in Mexico with the country''s vast lithium resources (Plaza, 2021). Strengthening the lithium and electric vehicle supply chain in North America through the USMCA would allow the three countries to compete with China.
As one of the most crucial automobile manufacturing countries, Mexico has recognized the potential of lithium batteries to advance the field of electric vehicles. The present work aims to provide an overview of lithium batteries in Mexico for electric vehicles and highlights the
It has been only 13 years since the first mainstream electric vehicle – the Nissan Leaf – arrived in America. In that relatively short time, the Leaf has been joined by more than forty other battery-electric vehicles, and last year, almost 1.2 million electric vehicles were sold in America. The electric vehicle is still in its infancy, but
Lithium ion battery prices are going down each year . Technological developments related to improvement in manufacturing and installation of huge capacity factories (Giga factories) make prices affordable for users. Although the transition from conventional vehicles to electric vehicles is very obvious, there are still realistic concerns at the consumer

Recently, the use of lithium to produce electric vehicle batteries has increased substantially, as shown in Fig. 2. The International Energy Agency (2020) estimates that the electric vehicle stock will also grow considerably due to the environmental goals countries aspire to reach in the next decades, demonstrated in Fig. 3. California, China

In the previous study, environmental impacts of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) have become a concern due the large-scale production and application. The present paper aims to quantify the potential environmental impacts of LIBs in terms of life cycle assessment. Three different batteries are compared in this study: lithium iron phosphate (LFP) batteries, lithium
Lithium is one of the key components in electric vehicle (EV) batteries, but global supplies are under strain because of rising EV demand. The world could face lithium shortages by 2025, the International Energy Agency

By contrast, in 2018, Mexico imported 195 tons of lithium from Chile and Slovenia (Ministry of Economy, 2021) for a total cost of 3.8 million USD (Aguirre Quezada, 2021). The price of lithium varies among producers due to the mineral’s purity, size, packaging, and other factors (Ministry of Economy, 2021).
Abstract: The global shift towards sustainable transportation has generated great interest in using lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) for electric vehicles (EVs). As one of the most crucial automobile manufacturing countries, Mexico has recognized the potential of lithium batteries to advance the field of electric vehicles.
Moreover, the report pinpoints that Mexico exported 36.4 tons of lithium in 2018, primarily to the United States and France, with total revenue of 652,400 USD (Ministry of Economy, 2021).
In addition, the Mexican government lacks the financial and technical capacity to invest in lithium development, particularly Sonora, where lithium deposits are trapped in clay rocks. Thus, a scenario of absolute nationalism where the government conducts the exploration and extraction of lithium is implausible.
This article addresses the risks and uncertainties that Mexico faces in developing lithium since the discovery of the world’s largest lithium mine in Sonora, Mexico. In addition, the increasing demand for hybrid and electric vehicles has put Mexico in an excellent position for the development of lithium soon.
