Some said battery replacement will be expensive,  i dont know if it really need to be replaced within 10 years , even assuming so, if one month save $300 on fuel, 10 years will save ＄36,000, that is more than enough to replace a lot of battery ? 

Need at least 300k km to achieve about 20% degradation.

So far, I “seen” 400k km with battery degradation of 22%.

Unless your mileage is like cargod, it is the least of your worries.

One, I know you appreciate already EV come, typically, with lower rolling-road-resistance rubber to maximize theoretical range but I've said before, my tyre guy at the office is typically changing EV tyres at just 8-months, 6-8k kms. EV have enormous acceleration and torque, but I can bet tyres are NEVER in the window for spirited driving as they're nerfed from 10min down the road.

Hmm, I am trying out a nice, cheap RWD EV now. It has done 9+kkm on the mileage and still has loads of tyre thread left. I think it is your office tyre guy driving's style. 😄

Soon all Chinese EVs will come with 10 years warranty on battery.

Earlier there were reports EV sales are slowing and hybrid is rising.  But EV sales rose a respectable 26% in first half of 24? So it is a matter of perspective, slower versus earlier expectation of 50% growth?  EV sales is headed for another record year.

With falling battery prices, we are going to see more Nissan and VW closing plants and running into trouble.  The Kodak moment is very near.

Nissan leaf is the 1st EV from Japan.

I guess Nissan no money to develop EV.
