Why did the U.S. miss the battery revolution?

CATL has a 650 mile battery, which would definitely put Tesla on the ropes if e.g. Toyota could use it. Range and cost are probably the main barriers to electric cars.

The stove linked in the article is also bonkers. It would have been more impressive with a thermometer readout before they turned it on though. I checked other videos [0] and it seems to be real.
