Lithium-ion (Li-ion) EV battery prices have decreased dramatically over the past few years, mainly due to the fall in prices of critical battery metals: Lithium, cobalt and nickel. For example, the price of cobalt has fallen from roughly $70,000
The decline in lithium carbonate prices has significantly weakened its impact on battery costs. In January 2023, lithium carbonate constituted 51% of the total cost of LFP storage batteries, a figure that
Tesla is charging toward a major milestone in its quest for battery dominance. On June 28, 2025, the company announced that its first North American lithium iron phosphate (LFP) battery manufacturing facility, located in
Lithium-ion battery pack prices dropped 20% in 2024, reaching $115/kWh. EV battery prices dip below $100/kWh—explore the trends behind this decline.
Lithium iron-phosphate (LFP) batteries are the powerhouse of the EV battery market, capturing nearly half of the market share in 2025. LFP batteries account for a sizable majority (60-70%) all of Chinese EV production.
The following summary explores the key developments in the EV battery sector, examining how falling prices, China''s growing competitive advantage, and the rise of lithium-iron-phosphate (LFP) technology are

The International Energy Agency (IEA) traces the development of the global electric vehicle battery market in 2024 and reveals details on geographical market distribution,
The addition of LFP capacities outside of Greater China will raise the global average price of LFP cells in the midterm, but as the manufacturing cost is brought under control through process improvements, the global LFP average cell price will gradually fall below the current level.
The price of LFP cells is over 20% lower than nickel cobalt manganese (NCM) cells. The average price of an LFP cell was just under $60/kWh in 2024. Currently, Greater China has a near monopoly in LFP cell manufacturing, considering the negligible LFP production capacity in Europe and North America.
The report states that LFP batteries reached 80% of the batteries sold in China during November and December. “The higher energy density of NMC batteries remains an advantage for applications requiring longer ranges or operation in cold climates,” the report notes.
