    What the hell are you doing that you need to replace the battery enough for it to be classed as a weakness for all EVs??

    Look up Lithium Iron phosphate batteries. They will outlive the car they’re in even better than the lithium ion ones that are the majority at the moment. Those lithium ion batteries will also outlive the vehicle they’re in btw. The only ones that won’t are Leaf batteries because either they’re an old chemistry or because nissan cheaper out and didn’t put a coolant loop in them.

      It’s not so much of a problem for brand new models but there are still many older ones that suffer from battery failure and degradation outside of warranty.
