> a refurbished replacement pack cost 150% the value of the car When I researched evs, I couldn't make the economics make sense. 7 years for a car lifetime seems outrageous. | ||

Where do you get 7 years? That is not true of most EV. Even the worst ones, like the early Leafs did better than that. | ||

The economics of that seems solid to me. If the battery is bad in year 7 it's replaced under warranty. | ||
