> how long did you own your last EV car ? enough to pass the limit for the EV to become interesting ? You think all Tesla & BYD owners do that ?

Again, I reference your source:

"Yet when the MIT study calculated a comparison in which EVs lasted only 90,000 miles on the road rather than 180,000 miles, they remained 15 percent better than a hybrid and far better than a gas car."

Both of my cars have 100k+ miles on them, with plenty of life left. Modern vehicles seem to do 200-300k miles regularly.

I am not an outlier: https://www.reuters.com/business/autos-transportation/americ...

"The average age of U.S. cars and light trucks this year rose to a record 12.6 years, according to the report by S&P Global Mobility on Wednesday, up by two months from 2023."

The average American drives 12k miles a year.

I'm not sure why you zeroed in on a source that openly debunks all of your arguments, but I do appreciate the assist.
