    The C output rate on sodium ion isn’t that high, IIRC. You can buy sodium ion in 12 volt car battery form factor today. My understanding the only limitation is charging may not work right due the voltage regulators and the different needs on charging. (Which could be overcome with adapters.). Sodium ion will likely replace the lead acid use case by the end of the decade.
