[QUOTE="mbasko, post: 675453, member: 4485"] Likewise lets not regurgitate pro EV propaganda. While most reputable EV manufacturers have an 8 year/160000km warranty I believe not all do? Reputable manufacturers are also only guaranteeing the battery will have above or around ~70% capacity after 8 years (450km drops somewhere between that down to 315km) & possibly down to ~60% thereafter as battery degradation increases (not sure what the replacement recommendation is but 60% would be getting close no?). Expected life 20 years or 1.2 million km? No reputable manufacturer is saying that that I can see. Most say they should last between 10 to 20 years with battery degradation between about 2.6 to 4.5%/year (which is pretty good really), so lower km's each year of service until unserviceable. I think if you got 20 years out of them you'd be doing exceedingly well & likely travelling low km's? [/QUOTE]
