You said that the Tesla DID pass the requirements, therefore I felt safe in assuming you meant even the longevity requirement which is 10 years.

Yes, and we already have batteries that passed that test. You can even buy them at Sears. The electro-hybrid battery packs passed the test. The Zap cars passed the test. Tesla passed the test.
While I do agree that we can all say "Coulda, woulda, shoulda" I am trying to reference what IS going on today, and what can be done to improve what we have. Anyone can be an armchair quarterack and look at the PAST, I am trying to refer to the here and now. what do we have NOW, and how well you like or dislike what we have currently on the market, and upcoming in the near future. Personally when it comes to mass production, I think the Volt is going to hit the market first, and stronger than what else may be out there.
