Fear Mongering About Range Anxiety Has To Stop — CT Governor Calls Out EV Opponents::Several state governors are fighting fear mongering as they attempt to reduce transportation emissions in their states.
Last I checked an engine and transmission rebuild combined cost less than replacing just the batteries on an EV. An ICE might need a rebuild every 20+ years but, we don’t even have 20 years of EV data to look at to compare.
No, I don’t follow EVs super close. What brands allow this? What third party batteries can I buy and how much do they cost and how do they compare to OEM batteries?
Depends on which ones you buy and when.
It’s very easy to look at 10+ year old batteries and extrapolate.
That’s what we call a “loaded question”. There’s all kinds of companies.
How much does it cost to replace an EV battery on average?
There aren’t a ton of 10+ year old EVs is my problem. 10 years ago EV were still a pretty niche thing. If you have that kind of info I’d love to take a look though.
I definitely wouldn’t call that a loaded question. How do you figure that it is?
