Most new EVs come with an 8-year battery warranty, which guarantees they will retain at least 70% of their original capacity
So again, anyone buying an EV that is close to or older than 8 years old is taking a massive financial risk. Every link you post confirms this yet you think it’s proving your point lol
@Whirlybird
The average warranty for internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles varies depending on the manufacturer and region, but typically falls within the range of 3 to 7 years, with some up to 10.

So you’re saying that ICE vehicles typically last 10 years or less.
There are risks in buying anything, new or used. The warranty is just a limited guarantee.
It used to be said of ICE vehicles that they’d never replace the horse. The big problem being that you can’t grow the fuel.
With EVs, at least power points are pretty common. That wasn’t the case for petrol stations, back in the day.
It’s a management issue. The adaptable survived. You’re just proving that you’re not a survivor.

A EV battery replacement is multiples of times more expensive than an engine replacement on basically any non-supercar lol.
You’ve made some bad arguments but that one knocks it out of the park.
@Whirlybird
Except that EV batteries rarely need replacement. As I’ve proven time and time again.
Clearly, you have a belief system that is not supported by reality.

Except when they don’t, at which time you’ll be out of pocket tens of thousands of dollars.
People like you are insufferable. EVs are awesome, but they’re not perfect and they’re a much bigger risk buying second hand.
@Whirlybird
Nothing’s perfect. The survivors are those who can work with reality.
The fact that you’re unable to substantiate you assertions repeatedly proves my point.
