Panasonic Corp is studying options for new electric car battery production with partner Tesla after the US carmaker unveiled a plan to expand output and halve the price of the key auto component, the Japanese firm said on Wednesday.

"We are considering a variety of options, but nothing has been determined at this time," a Panasonic spokeswoman said after Tesla Chief Executive Elon Musk outlined his plans in the closely watched "Battery Day" presentation.
