What would you ever consider new in any vehicle if you look at it like that?
Solid state batteries? Not new, it's just changing the anode but a battery is a battery so it's just an iteration.
... Not much.
I'm not really looking to the automotive industry for completely new innovation like that. If I'm going to spend tens of thousands of dollars for a car, I'm probably going to keep it for at least a decade and I value it being reliable and easy to repair. Mature technologies have a lot of advantages over new innovations there.
I'm not the one claiming that these features are new or innovate, and I'm not the one claiming that being on the cutting-edge of technology is a good thing. Musk is.
