I think there was an indication that they were prismatic and it may be that CATL doesn't currently make cylindrical cells?There hasn’t been any indication that the LFP cells in the Made in China 3 SR or Y SR are prismatic, has there? I thought CATL was already supplying cylindrical LFP cells to Tesla and I’m not sure why that would change.
CATL-Built Tesla Model 3 Battery Pack Will Use Prismatic Cells - CleanTechnica
Tesla will seemingly use prismatic lithium-iron-phosphate (LFP) batteries from CATL in its Made in China Tesla Model 3 Standard Range Plus.

Even if CATL don't currently make cylindrical cells, they will be capable of doing that.
