[QUOTE="Non liberal, post: 5196351, member: 94513"] I’m curious as to which ev you have that the battery never needs replaced? The best warranty going right now is teslas 8yr 100,000 mi. Warranty. At which point that is considered the life of the vehicle for most. That’s not even considering the diminished charge capacity that some say begins at 4-5 years. At the price of theses vehicles, 8 years or 100,000 miles is not even close to being able to replace an internal combustion vehicle. Far from superior technology, it’s not even in the same ballpark. (For those that don’t know, that is called an idiom) I got made fun of for using one in a previous post. When I talk about power going off what I mean is say you are out using your ev and you run the battery down to nothing, you get home and a severe storm knocks your power out for a few days. What do you do? I can take my gasoline car and fill up at a gas station that does have power. You can’t because it died. And im sorry, but apparently you never owned a Toyota. That vehicle is a lifetime vehicle if you take care of it. With very minimal, cheap maintenance. Thats why I buy Toyotas.
