    1. I’m wary of any data coming from Tesla themselves.
    2. That’s kind of comparing apples and oranges. Also an engine rebuild is also considerably cheaper than battery replacements.
    3. That link sounds more theory than reality. A lot of “if” and “may” used in that article.
    4. 100,000 miles over ten years isn’t much. Reaching that amount of miles is considered less than the minimum for modern cars. And it’s only one example, I’ve seen examples of the exact opposite.
    5. How old and how many miles did the EVs you’ve owned have when you sold them?

    There’s not a ton of data on older EVs so it’s kind of hard get a clear picture on their longevity. I know they’re constantly improving and I’ll eventually get one, just not today 🤷🏻.
