BRUSSELS, March 2 (Reuters) - Scaling up production in Europe could cut the cost gap between EU-made batteries and those coming from China to around 30% from a current 90%, transport and environment campaign group T&E said in a report on Monday, and it urged the EU to support the sector with its “Made in Europe” plans.

    Not product, just the battery. Cost of battery is ~35% of the cost of a car so car with European battery will be what? 10-15% more expensive? Probably similar for other products. I would be more than happy to pay extra 10% for products with batteries made in Europe.
