Lithium Ion based batteries have a lot of room to grow still.

Everything out there in cars today can likely still double or triple over the next couple decades.

Everyone says they want a 1000 mile car but they really don't need it. We'll reach an optimal price/battery range in a car and begin reducing the amount of batteries with our current tech before we're selling cars with the full potential a decade or two from now.

And the increase in power density in LFP batteries will be a great thing given their cost, longevity and safety profile.
