I would like to see statistics on how many batteries are replaced over the 8 year warranty period. People can live with a shorter range on a second hand EV. But the possibility that at any given time the battery could give up the ghost and the part costs more than the remaining value of the car is the big turnoff.
According to an official report from Tesla, the reputed EV maker claimed that its Model 3 and Model Y lose 15% of range on average after 200,000 miles, while the Model X and Model S lose only about 12%. These numbers are impressive, and might be just enough to alleviate the battery degradation concerns that have plagued EV owners for years.
