BATTERY CAP ASSEMBLY

Vehicles, battery assemblies, and methods for fabricating batteries are provided. A method for fabricating a battery includes arranging a plurality of foils associated with a plurality of electrodes of a battery cell in a stack, wherein the stack has an outer side surface; locating a cap assembly over the stack, wherein the cap assembly has an outer side surface, and wherein the cap assembly includes a conductive terminal in electrical connection with a battery cell tab, wherein an insulative plate is located between the battery cell tab and the conductive terminal; joining the battery cell tab to the plurality of foils; and adhering an insulative tape to the outer side surfaces of the stack and the cap assembly.
