Maybe not too surprising on this one. I hear the range on these are not great especially if you drive them spiritedly. And given it’s a first gen product on a new tech, no one really knows what these will be worth 5 - 10 years from now.
I’m wondering how long it’ll be before a full battery replacement for, let’s say, a Tesla model 3 is sub $5k. If it’s really advancing that fast the “$15k every 10 years for a new battery” stigma should be a non issue.
Tesla Model 3 batteries will be holding up for 15 years, if you get one of the new LFP batteries in the standard-range models you will get 20 years as an absolute minimum. Battery tech in 2013 was a far cry away from what it is now in 2023.
