Lithium is expensive. I see lots of hype about sodium-ion or sodium-sulfur or other weird exotic batteries, but it seems like it never pans out.
Will any major EV manufacturer publicly offer a car with non-lithium batteries at any point before 2025?
Errata
Weird concept cars or numbered-limited-edition cars don't count.
But, if some weird-yet-standard variant does have a different battery, that does count (e.g. a country-specific model)
It should look and feel like a typical American car, i.e. not counting go-karts
Most of the drive power needs to come from the lithium-free component, but if there's some aux power that uses lithium I'll still allow it
Old battery tech (lead acid, nickel-whatever) doesn't count
Some random member of the public needs to be able to buy it and have a car delivered before 31 Dec 2024
Ask me to clarify in a comment before you trade on a weird edge case, I'll stick closer to the spirit of the question than to the letter
