There have been a few highly publicized situations where the pack gets damaged (road damage), and is not covered. The replacement is more the new car.

I think it’s overblown. A combination of it all just being new and getting figured out, and manufacturers selling the cars at a loss (for various reasons), but not the spare parts.

Isn't that also true if the engine and transmission also took significant road damage and requires replacement on an ICE BMW?

Breaking news: expensive components of cars are expensive.

They are expensive, but rarely more than the car is new.

And in the account I read they had simply run over some unknown road debris on a highway. Something most people could imagine happening to them.
