This is just my observation. Anything battery powered that gets used a lot will progressively last a shorter amount of time each time you use it. At the beginning, it’s a microscopic amount, but towards the end of its lifecycle, it just drops off a cliff. When the EV is five years old, the amount of time that the battery will last has to be a good bit less than when it was new. To me this just makes it a very bad idea. It’s one thing when it’s a cordless drill but it’s another when you’re in a car on a deserted road out in the middle of nowhere with no ability to charge it. It’s a lot easier to find a gas station in that situation than an EV charging station. The people pushing these cars obviously don’t use them.
