and finally Ganfeng with a 20 GWh SSB factory in Chongqing, which will be China's largest such factory.

I think this is my regret about the brave new world of electrification. As manufacturers switch their R&D funds to electric vehicles, there will increasingly be prospective ICE developments "left on the table" as simply uneconomic to pursue. The internal combustion engine has come a long, long way over the last century, and one wonders what next several decades could've brought if not for the EV revolution.
The analogy that springs to mind is how the significant innovation of lamps was rapidly outshone by the march of electrified lighting.

After Tesla's price cut, BYD still outsold it almost 3 to 1. Wulin also sold a lot of it Hongguan Mini EV.
BYD probably rather builds a brand new factory from scratch instead of buying one from Ford in Europe.

ECARX collaborating with SiEngine's SE1000 SoC to form the digital cockpit platform (or as I call it Smart car OS) on FAW's Hongqi brand cars.
so 8 core CPU, 14 core GPU and separate NPU with 8 TOPS AI computation. Not sure what the overall computation is.
Zzzz
Stuff like heavy trucks, tanks, ships will still run on combustion engine. Innovations can go there. For a regular person I really can't care less about ICE 'innovations'.

CATL signed the agreement with Bolivia for developing its lithium reserves. They will use China's DLE technology, and raise the production from 543 tons last year to more than 40,000 tons in 2025.

Is sodium ion battery going to avoid using lithium as ingredients? China's adversaries are increasingly trying to hoard lithium and deprive China of lithium supply from south America.
That's more cars than lucid, rivian and polestar combined.
