with zero degradation in the first five years of use.

Kind of an important fact there. It's not zero degradation, but some magic new tech that makes it not degrade for a while.

It's probably the same thing Tesla does, it just charges up to 80% and says that's 100%, then as it degrades it charges to a higher percent to compensate. They just give it some headroom for the degradation.

If that were true, then you probably should calculate the difference in energy density. How do they achieve that effect while increasing energy density?

Even if it’s just zero degradation in the first 5 years, that still seems like a big deal.
