" CATL has thrown its hat into the ring with the Naxtra sodium-ion battery, with 175 Wh/kg and 10,000 lifetime cycles along with operation from -40°C to 70°C. CATL is planning a start-stop battery for trucks using the technology. It has the potential to replace lead-acid batteries. CATL has announced battery pricing at the cell level in volume at $19/kWh.

This isn't true any more, and it's mentioned in the article. Sodium is at least equivalent to - and on pace to surpass - the energy density of Lithium. It's already being used in passenger cars in the Far East.
