I am sure you all realise that in the not too distant future we will all be riding around sitting on a battery.
I thought a thread discussing all aspects or concerns, costs etc, in this early stage of EV's we could talk about.
Are today's batteries good enough, actual distances achieved, battery degradation etc.
I see that many brands give an 8 year guarantee on batteries, but, that 8 years is "OR 100,000 miles", about 160,000Km. ????
Now, if you cover many Km's in your EV, the batteries could be stuffed well before that 8 years.
What about when you want to buy a new EV, is the value of the car going to be carp because the battery life or Km is near, whereas, here in LOS gas car's hold reasonable value till old age, in other words, trade in value.
Would like to hear views or thoughts, especially if you have concerns...????
