Quote from: anan on Yesterday at 09:02:43The source article kinda references a 20 year lifetime for passenger vehicles. Wonder if they've accounted for a possible battery replacement for EVs during this time.
Does it matter? When there is a 4x difference. On top of that there is use of a battery past its vehicle life.
QuoteBecause right now replacing a battery on a 10 year old EV is not economically viable. The price of a new battery far exceeds the remaining value of an EV with a dead battery.
How is that different from an ICE car? An engine replacement after 10 years would be worth more than the car itself too.
