I haven't met anyone who's replaced a battery yet. So far the batteries seem to outlast the car.

Most EVs are not old enough to need a replacement so no surprise you haven't seen it.

I've seen places offering to do it to a leaf. However the cost is more than the leaf is worth by the time it needs it. I know a few people with a leaf that has half the factory range left and they just deal with it because the cost isn't worth it.

Sure, it wasn't designed for it. But the battery still gets recycled.
