A battery pack for an electric vehicle may include a plurality of battery cells arranged into one or more rows. Each of the plurality of battery cells may include a first terminal and a second terminal, and the plurality of battery cells may include a subset of battery cells with the first terminal oriented in a same direction in the battery pack. The battery pack may also include a busbar configured to conduct electrical energy to and from at least the subset of battery cells. The busbar may include a plurality of cutouts positioned over the first terminals of the subset of battery cells, and a plurality of tabs that springably contact the respective first terminal. A method of building a battery pack with a busbar connection is also presented.
