From the Tesla owners forum:
85 kWh uses Panasonic NRC 18650A 3.1Ah - you can find easy the spec sheet just google it - it is an automotive battery whith additional features to reduce the chance of thermal run away and current overload.
60 kWh not clear here - may be using Panosonic 2.1 Ah battery same as in the roadster.
Also
Tesla chose the less common nickel cobalt aluminum chemistry (NCA) for the S-Model.
The battery is a custom blending but the actual chemistry is known. What's not known is how they adjusted the mix
And don't think for a minute advances won't make it to market. There is no way Panasonic would trade off a couple million for the potential billions in global sales
NDA= I can show you how to get it done, but I can't show you how they did it
