battery degredation is a big one I hear alot. All I can say is, you wont need to replace anything if the data continues to be far better than even two years ago. I have a now-older model EV and its a few % down after 3-4 years, I expect to be well above 80% in another six and I do alot of miles. What i’ve noticed is as i’ve got used to it, ive learned and understood how and when I need to make allowances. Even today for example I did 200 miles and in summer I can do my usual trip in one stop with a little left over - as the temperature changed as I went over a hill peak I lost 15 miles of range so I made an additional stop.

Generally the biggest thing to get my head around is the efficiency rating. Many new EVs are getting 2.5kw/mile average but because the battery is larger you dont notice it. Mine gets double that easily but the battery is smaller, less weight etc but its actually really cheap to run because its very efficient. I think the new Hyundais are getting 6-7miles per kw, which is superb, but, the bigger brands like Ford and Jag are really poor by comparison. What I mean is, the mass market is going backward and innovators are more expensive. Ive long maintained we are 5 years away from being ready, and my next EV will be hopefully far superior in 6 years time
