Beware the cost of replacing batteries
A recent letter said that “fossil fuels are energy-dense.” The same goes for those who have bought very expensive electric vehicles, thinking they are saving money. The real cost comes when the batteries need to be replaced.
Too expensive to replace, they will end up being a throwaway item.
In years to come, used electric vehicles will be as plentiful as the batterypowered drills, garden equipment, vacuum cleaners etc. that one finds in a thrift store. Perfectly good units with powered-out batteries.
They are a dime a dozen, for good reason.
