Comment on Labor will announce home battery rebate in “coming days,” says federal treasurer
Whirlybird@aussie.zone 4 days agoSaying that on average a EV battery will last you 400k miles for one lol.
There’s also the fact that it will need to be charged more and more frequently the older the car gets, as battery capacity reduces.
Then there’s the fact that one is a twin turbo performance car, the other is a family car.

I think that’s already been proven, at least in the case of Teslas, that the batteries DO actually last that long on average?
Batteries that lose range but still functioning generally are being swapped out but then sold as house batteries, will incredibly useful and bigger than most house batteries. So they are not a total loss and largely still functioning. Newer battery systems allow swap out of individual cells.
If you look in the comments, someone swapped out the BMW to a cheap ICE car and the Tesla was still cheaper, lol.
I don’t know where you are but electricity prices here have been going down as we add more renewables to the grid. Most EV owners have solar, and mostly charge for less or free from home - I’m one of them.

It has not been proven that Tesla and ev batteries last that long on average.
The more renewables that are added to the grid the higher electricity prices go.

Dude. I’ve provided the receipts with literally every post. You have provided nothing. Give it up already, you are ideologically hamstrung and unable to accept that you are wrong.

You haven’t provided receipts, you’ve provided baseless pro-EV guesses and terribly inaccurate guesstimates.
You still can’t accept that buying a second hand EV, especially one out of warranty, is a massive risk.
