I've always driven my cars as long as possible, but somewhere around 300.000 km (200 k miles) is where there were so many issues that I had to get rid of them.

It's great to see that EVs can reach that mileage with a decent range.

I think the fear comes from other electronics where we saw batteries fail completely. I had a laptop that had a remaining battery life of about 3 minutes and a phone that switched itself off at ~20%.

Still so mad I fell for that fear. I could have got the hybrid.

It was a legitimate risk before the data became available.
