Abstract
Systems, methods, and other implementations described herein relate to a battery for use in a battery cell assembly that facilitates pack manufacturing. In one embodiment, the battery cell assembly includes a first battery cell having two electrical tabs extending from the first battery cell. The battery cell assembly also includes a second battery cell positioned substantially adjacent to the first battery cell and having two electrical tabs extending from the second battery cell. Additionally, the electrical tabs of the first and second battery cells are prebent. The battery cell assembly further includes a busbar operatively connected to the electrical tabs of the first and second battery cells.
